🌕 Is this the first exomoon? 🧪 🔭
Astronomers found a planetary-mass object orbiting a brown dwarf — which itself orbits a star. Planet, moon, or “exosatellite”? The answer may depend on how it formed.

I would tell an exomoon joke, but there's no compelling evidence for one.
I have an exoplanet atmospheres joke, but first I need to retrieve it
I have a musicology joke but first I have to explain why it sounds the way it does.

Astronomers have found the strongest evidence yet for the first exomoon: a Jupiter-mass object orbiting the brown dwarf CD-35 2722 B every 170 days. The discovery could reshape how scientists define moons and reveals a new way to find them beyond our solar system.
Astronomers Have Detected an Exomoon for the First Time
A discovery in a solar system 73 light-years from Earth is challenging definitions and “blurring the lines between stars, planets, and moons.”

The tilt of the bulge is the thing: Poon et al. on “A potential exomoon from the predicted planet obliquity of β Pictoris b” showing that if upcoming JWST observations confirm a suspected obliquity then there may be a massive exomoon to detect! Keep calm and carry on observing…. 🔭🪐 #astrodon

Very cool! We really should be getting #exomoon transits with JWST....
The most sensitive search for exomoons ever - moons 2.5x smaller than Europa are excluded! And around a temperate Earth-sized planet to boot. What’s really neat is that, for the first time, we can confidently say another Earth does not enjoy total Solar eclipses.
