Eclipse#9915: also its not visual light, its infrared
Wiskeyweasel ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#6969: Plus beyond a certain distance the problem is less about needing a bigger telescope and more about physics preventing a better view
Eclipse#9915: Its not the distance, its the size in the sky
Eclipse#9915: angular resolution

QwertyThePie#1615: I was making a joke about the media oversensationalizing completely normal and common occurences
QwertyThePie#1615: Like calling lunar eclipses "blood moons"

Do the planets in habitable zone can really develop life, considering that trappist-1 star only half of billion years old and it was very active most of that time.
I always hear that these planets can contain life, but i'm actually not sure about it.
