Is there a better source? “Freethink” seems to be confusingly mixing terms. FWIW, we don’t have telescopes to resolve the surface of planets like this so they’re using inferences to approximate composition and extrapolating surface characteristics. Ie by these methods at a similar distance the statements are roughly equivalent to what we’d say of earth if we were seeing it at this distance. The crucial takeaway seems to be it might have a proper water cycle with or without surface rock. Edit-another comment or pointed to https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.06333 https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.06333
