We May Have Found the First Exomoon! SciShow News

The video discusses the discovery of exoplanets and the potential first exomoon, Kepler 1625 B, using data from the Kepler and Hubble telescopes. It highlights the challenges in confirming the exomoon's existence due to limited observation time and data uncertainties. Additionally, the video explores a study on Jupiter's moon Europa, predicting the presence of giant ice blades called penitentes, which could impact future exploration missions.

Discuss the implications of finding a moon beyond our solar system for planetary science.

What are penitentes, and how do they form on celestial bodies like Europa?

What factors did astronomers consider when modeling the likelihood of penitentes on Europa?
