Earlier this year, NASA revealed the largest batch of earth-size, located in an habitable zone planets, all around a single star. This exoplanet system is called Trappist-1, named after the telescope in Chile.
Then, on a video (I leave you the link below) scientist told this planets are so close from each other that you would be able to see them above the horizon. That announcement blew my mind and inspired me to paint this.
If the technology one day becomes available to travel there, what do you think? Would you go?
I would absolutely go. Imagine setting foot on an alien planet; not just in our galaxy but in another star system! How amazing and exciting that would be! Sign me up!
BTW, love the picture! You're very talented.
Thanks man, yes, it sounds insane!
