Surprisingly, TRAPPIST-1's violent flares could make life even more likely
Briefly

Habitability is more complicated than you think.Stellar flares are usually considered a major hazard for life, especially around red dwarf stars, where the planets likeliest to host life are also close to the star and right in the line of fire for destructive flares.But a recent study suggests that stellar flares may also heat the interior of rocky planets, powering geological activity that, in turn, provides an energy source for life.
