TRAPPIST-1 Resonant Seven-World Habitable Zone Architecture
Spitzer, Kepler, and JWST transit timing variations map the Laplace resonance chain of seven terrestrial exoplanets orbiting ultra-cool dwarf TRAPPIST-1.
LOCAL GEMMA COSMIC STORYTELLING SYNTHESIS (meteors-gemma:latest):
Compact multi-planet chains around M-dwarfs demonstrate how inward type-I disk migration locks rocky worlds into stable mean-motion resonances within the liquid-water belt.
