This shirt embodies the thrill of space exploration's uncertainties. Just like the mysteries of TRAPPIST-1e, we're never quite sure what's out there until we take a closer look. After all, today's "kinda" is tomorrow's "absolutely" in the ever-evolving journey of space discovery!

Wear this tee, and you're not just making a fashion statement; you're declaring that space exploration is more than cool – it's 'kinda' the most exciting quest of our time. And who knows? Maybe one day, "kinda habitable" will be "home sweet home."

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!

The text on the shirt reads as follows:

"Situated 39.46299 light-years away in the constellation of Aquarius orbits a noteworthy ultracool dwarf star, TRAPPIST-1. Among the celestial bodies circling this star is TRAPPIST-1e, a rocky, close-to-Earth-sized exoplanet, also designated as 2MASS J23062928-0502285 e. This intriguing sphere was discovered using the transit method, a technique that measures the dimming of a star when a planet crosses in front of it. But TRAPPIST-1e is not alone; astronomers, using the Spitzer Space Telescope, identified six other exoplanets around the same star. Among these, e, f, and g sit in the habitable or "Goldilocks Zone", suggesting they could have just the right conditions to support life. Astonishingly, TRAPPIST-1e bears striking similarities to our own planet in terms of mass, radius, density, gravity, temperature, and stellar flux. Furthermore, it lacks a cloud-free, hydrogen-dominated atmosphere, suggesting a compact atmosphere more like that of terrestrial planets in our Solar System. In 2018, researchers declared TRAPPIST-1e to be the best candidate in the multi-planetary system for potentially being an Earth-like ocean planet. It is therefore deemed as the prime candidate for further study regarding habitability. The Habitable Exoplanets Catalog ranks TRAPPIST-1e among the most promising potentially habitable exoplanets discovered to date."
