      About This Lesson

      In this lesson, students are introduced to the TRAPPIST-1 —a recently discovered exoplanetary system with a theoretically habitable zone.  Students compare our solar system’s characteristics to those of TRAPPIST-1. The students decide how characteristics influence the likelihood of life in the TRAPPIST-1 system.

      This lesson uses a 5-E Model in alignment with NGSS to explore astronomy and astrobiology. It also aligns with the NYS Regents Exam.
