    Although, considering this planet is a bit closer to the star than Earth and that moons around gas planets tend to get a lot of tidal heating AND every couple centuries another star comes swinging by, we shouldn't be too surprised if the moons of Percival are more Mustafar-like than Endor-like.

    • @gregdamario5808
      @gregdamario5808 20 дней назад +11

      Yes! With a second star circling "Jupiter close" every 230 years, how did either star form planets and even if so, how does either star keep any planets? These are STAR level masses entering the interiors of each other's solar systems. The Oort Clouds, the Kuiper Belts and all the planets of both stars would either be flung out of the systems or slowed in orbit to crash into the stars, wouldn't they? This is more than weird.

    • @zimriel
      @zimriel 20 дней назад +17

      There's maths in the paper; the system is stable. Or to put it another way: the mutual orbit of these stars constrains possible inclinations and masses of the giant interior candidate planet "b".

    • @TanyaLairdCivil
      @TanyaLairdCivil 20 дней назад +24

      @@gregdamario5808There are resonances and points of stability even within such a system. It is within those stable resonances that planets form. Consider how Pluto is able to stay inside the Solar System, even though its orbit crosses that of Neptune. This is possible because Pluto and Neptune are in resonance. Pluto and Neptune pass through the same space, but never at the same time. Whenever Pluto crosses Neptune's orbit, Neptune is on the far side of the Solar System. Something similar would happen in this star system. Whenever the second Sun comes barreling through, everything that sits near that orbital distance would be far away.

    • @tommy-er6hh
      @tommy-er6hh 20 дней назад

      The planet is shorter year, thus closer orbit than Earth, so would be warmer. Our Moon and even Mars are not large enough to keep water at that distance. So anything to have water would require a moon about Earth size to have water. Unlikely with a Neptune size planet to have a moon that large, unless captured. So most moons would be airless/waterless. Anton may have over hyped it.

    People living on a moon orbiting this warm Neptune would have regular day & night cycles, as well as big nights when it transits behind the planet.
    They'd also get some really weird weather every two & a half centuries, as the second star of their binary system swings back through its perigee.

    • @statinskill
      @statinskill 20 дней назад

      Which means they live on a Star Wars Hoth. And since they didn't evolve there, they're from elsewhere. Possibly they're a penal colony. The kind where they don't worry about locking people up because nothing makes it through the night.

    • @rangaweerakkody165
      @rangaweerakkody165 20 дней назад +3

      Even if it is a sun sized star, distance of 4AU is not good enough to drastically heat up a planet which is around 1AU around. The additional energy would be around 1/16th increase. Given the second start is smaller, this value will further decrease. But it may stir up meteor showers of unbelievable magnitudes.

    • @_ninthRing_
      @_ninthRing_ 20 дней назад +4

      @rangaweerakkody165 Sorry I wasn't clear. I was actually thinking in terms of how the secondary star would affect the Coronal Dynamics of the primary.
      I suspect that this would lead to quite an increase in Ultraviolet rays hitting the moon's stratosphere, as well as Solar Energetic Particles (from solar flares or even coronal mass ejections) agitating the magnetosphere of the Neptunian planet - both of which would do freaky things to the weather patterns of this hypothetical pseudo Earth-like moon.

    Percival went to become one of the "greats" in Arthurian legend when he was one of only two (or three, depending on the source) knights to find the Holy Grail (the other being Sir Galahad). He is also credited with killing the Red Knight.

      @user-li7ec3fg6h 11 дней назад

      Well said! Wikipedia has also no such name explanation for Percival like in the Video, but it does refer to the knight of the same name in the Grail story of King Arthur. However, it is also reminiscent of another very old german legend by Eschenbach from the 12th century called Parzival or the famous opera by Wagner called Parsifal and its main character of the same name.
      At its core, this is an old tale about a man who has to pass a test and is transformed by an adventure. These legends played a major role in the education of knights in the Middle Ages. It was always about so-called knightly values. Unfortunately, too often the mistake is made of not recognizing what contemporary designations or names are based on.

      I have no direct experience, but for some reason academia appears to be a cut-throat business. I've read about & listened to many examples in history where one person would take credit for an idea proposed by a colleague, leaving the colleague bereft of credit. Examples I can recount:
      The story of graduate student Jocelyn Bell, who discovered the first pulsar, (using radio astronomy) comes to mind.
      Another instance was where Bret Weinstein communicated to a colleague his theory that cancer research mice may be predisposed to developing elongated telomeres. This eventually lead to the colleague taking share in a Nobel Prize, based on Bret's theory, but leaving Bret bereft of due credit.
      The lesson: If you stumble upon a novel idea or theory, collaborate only with those you deem trustworthy and personally see it through to its conclusion.

    No matter where we look and regardless of how many planets we find, the best we'll ever be able to say about any of them is that they "may support life". Nothing more definative can be said without physically investigating.

      If certain gases are detected in an exoplanet's atmosphere -- e.g. CFCs, overabundance of oxygen, etc. -- life must be present. There cannot form naturally.

    Here's a very ignorant question about the transit method. I understand how a transiting planet's size can be calculated if the planet's orbit is aligned perpendicular to us and it's sun. But what if the orbit is not exactly perpendicular and the orbit cuts across only a portion of the starlight according to our view? How do we know that this is the occurrence and not that the dimming planet is smaller in size than it actually is?

    How long could a system like this remain relatively stable? The stars certainly could. Planets and moons? If the Neptune size planet orbits every 272 days it will get between stars several times when the smaller is close. Wouldn't that raise hell with the moons, at least?

    Ooooh! Exciting! Wonder how they’ll observe these Moons, it may be silly but maybe the Gas Giant will be a very tiny coronagraph that will block out some of the star’s light making it slightly easier to see the moons? Who knows, maybe the moon transit in front of the gas giant’s atmosphere? Oh well, we’ll find out!

    This is definately one of the most interesting star systems i ever heard of. I suspect the smaller orbiting stsr will not add much to the heat received on the planet in the habitable zone. Thanks to the square by the distance rule. Even if the orbiting star was Sun-like it would still have a negligent add to the energy recieved by the habitable zone planet given it is 5 AU away. Just think of how cold it is the region of Jupiter's orbit that is 4.5 AU away from our Sun where ices prevail.

    What does habitable zone mean well a planet in a nice spot. Then what. Did this system have a Jupiter effect with Saturn pulling Jupiter out just in time. Kepler did a good job

  • @caejones2792
    @caejones2792 20 дней назад +1

    Everything about this system makes me less optimistic about its possession of habitable Planetary Mass Objects. First, isn't the current best model that hot Jupiters form past the frost line, then migrate inward over time due to tidal interactions with the rest of the system? What that suggests to me is that both planets are the survivers of catastrophic restructuring of the system, presumably helped along by the second star.
    Second, while some sort of stable resonance seems essential to keep these planets where they are, all the tidal variation on geologically short time scales makes it seem like large moons would be in jeopardy of being lost.
    And third, how big a moon are we expecting? Nothing necessarily constrains Percival from having a max moon size like the top 7 moons in our system, but it is a bit telling that we have four planets with large moons, and all of them fall into a relatively narrow range of sizes and masses. Since the gravitational situation in this system differs in significant ways from that of our system, and the signs are that these planets are migrants rather than forming near their current positions, that all makes me wonder if large moons stand a chance of surviving.
    And finally, accepting that, in spite of the difficulties, Percival could have a large moon (which I'm already predicting we'll name Penelope or Ariana), isn't it likely to have more in common with Earth's moon than Earth? Smaller than Earth, hotter, probably drier? Heck, if this hypothetical moon is captured from the leftovers of the hot Saturn's migratory destruction, I'd expect it to be even drier than Luna, because volatiles would have had a harder time surviving the migration than rock.
    Don't get me wrong; the system everyone's excited about does sound cool and it'd be awesome if it turns out closer to the optimistic versions. But I'm kinda feeling more optimistic about Proxima B, which we know is bombarded with superflares and probably lots of asteroids.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong (and I'm SURE someone will!!🤣) but Percival was one of the Knights of the Round Table, i.e. King Arthur. Also the main characters' alternate ego in Ready Player One (LOVED the book, the movie was meh).
    It seems rather odd that a binary with kind of eccentricity hasn't ejected a bunch of planets yet. It must have one helluva resonance!

    What would suck is if the second star had something like an Oort cloud or outer asteroid belt, and when it passed close by the other star, planet c would pass through the other stars belts and get pelted

  • @lokipatrick6760
    @lokipatrick6760 19 дней назад

    I guess the second star would not disrupt habitability. Earth is 1AU from our Sun, so a similar star that is for example 4.5AU away would be about 1/20th as bright as the Sun. Our Sun produces 100 kilolux of direct sunshine at Earth's surface, which reduces to 1 kilolux on an overcast day. So a second star yielding 1/20th of that would be 5 kilolux extra, which isn't much comparatively, and certainly clouds would produce more variation than that second star's presence would. It might still heat the planets up a little more than usual, but the elliptical nature of orbits and seasons could already have a larger effect. They might have a slightly milder winter or a slightly hotter summer for a time.

    I still say we should count exoplanets in units of "keps" where kep = kilo-exoplanet. And it's short for Kepler, the space telescope that found thousands of exoplanet candidates. Use "kep" the way you use "dozen" but it's 1000 not 12.
