the song of a solar system: trappist-1 - THE DUNLAP INSTITUTE

For our Thought Café + series, we teamed up with the incredible minds of three Dunlap Institute Astronomers to explore a very special study that involved mapping the orbits of the Trappist-1 exoplanet system, into a musical composition. That’s right. We highly recommend watching through to the insert of the composition itself, so you can get a taste of space music.
