Most large planets have moons. We have discovered almost 200 in our Solar System alone, and so we expect that the Milky Way is teeming with many more- perhaps even outnumbering planets and stars. With so many moons, it adds a plethora of additional holdouts in the galaxy capable of supporting life, and thus they are tantalising targets for scientists. However, extra-Solar moons are so insanely distant and dark against the backdrop of space, that them is a tremendous challenge. In this episode, we will cover its story so far.SOUNDTRACK:- Satya Yuga | Jesse Gallagher (YouTube Audio Library) - The Sleeping Prophet | Jesse Gallagher (YouTube Audio Library) - Where in Literally | pATCHES (YouTube Audio Library) - The Golden Present | Jesse Gallagher (YouTube Audio Library) CHAPTERS:00:00: Introduction 01:09: Exomoons04:26: How We Find Exomoons08:53: Kepler 1625 b-i 13:28: Other Exomoon Candidates
