Q&A: Hubble Finds Evidence of Possible Exomoon

Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble and Kepler space telescopes have uncovered tantalizing evidence for what could be a moon orbiting a gas-giant planet that orbits the star Kepler 1625, located 8,000 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. This program aired live on Friday, October 5th at 1 p.m. ET with Hubble scientists answering questions about what this evidence could mean for the future of exploring new worlds outside our solar system.
