Working as an external at the EC directorate for Research, I had the good fortune to be invited to a presentation by the team about four years ago on their TRAPPIST findings. Of course I took the opportunity to bring a kilo of Hasseltse speculaas.
Who comes up with all the names for these things. SPECULOOS, the TRAPPIST system … Is there a special function / departement at NASA who brainstorms over this namegiving?
