Beta Pictoris b: The next contender in the exomoon race
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 янв 2025
- Exomoons have been sought after for a while, and we've found candidates for moons around planets like Kepler-1625 b, Kepler-167 e, WASP-49 b, and even HD 189733 b. But there's a new contender: Beta Pictoris b.

THATS DESPICABLE 👹👹
As soon as I saw the title, I knew Cool Worlds would be name-dropped at some point. It would be inconceivable to do a video on exomoons without mentioning him.
I think David Kipping is the leading astronomer studying exomoons. At least he invests the most time on it. He gets criticized by his peers for it, saying it's not important right now.
@@dbsti3006I just watched an old video of his where he mentioned he was - for a time - pretty much the only one looking. He was worried (in the days when the Kepler mission was still operational) that younger astrophysicists simply wouldn't want to become an Exomoon researcher because they thought 'Dr. Kipling is going to find them all before I even get established.' So, in a way, I guess he'd say that there's a silver lining to the fact it's taken so long.
Moons and small bodies like dwarf planets have always been really interesting to me, and I can’t wait till we get our first confirmed exomoon.
We could be on the cusp of finding at least a few exomoons.
how would exomoons be named??
@@dontobillosomething along the lines of “Beta Pictoris B1” I would assume
Please never stop doing these videos
Glad he mentioned Cool Worlds. David Kipping may be the leading exomoon astronomer at the moment. Criticized by his peers, saying its not important now. Some of us are highly interested in the subject though, so he studies it regardless.
David Kipping might just be ahead of his time. There was a similar wave of criticism and snobbishness immediately before the first exoplanet discoveries.
Finally, let me know when we find Pandora.
Fr my shareholders need that extra yatch
3 meter tall alien milkers, let's go!
Go find em in Alpha Centauri.
Oh boy, Saturn got a suprise for you
Both of Beta Pictoris' planets were discovered through direct imagery, maybe the potential exomoon could be too?
Maybe, though it's much harder to image moons.
Both of Beta Pictoris's were imaged because they're massive and far enough from their host star, this exomoon candidate would be too close to the planet to be imaged
A change in spectrum would be detectable I think.
Help! The Cute Girl Behind The Manga Cafe Counter is an ExoMoon!!!!!
It would be incredibly unlikely imo if most planets in the universe didn’t have some type of moon
Everything except rocky planets and astroids are almost guaranteed to have moons
@ARandomUser6969 literally every Rocky planet, with the exception of Venus and Mercury has a moon.
@@titanicbigship I think you have it switched around - Earth is one of the only rocky bodies that has a major moon orbiting it. Mars may have moons but they are minor capture moons if anything.
There are of course cases of asteroids like the ones observed in the DART mission and there is Charon and Pluto’s barycentric interaction.
@@titanicbigship moons that form around a planet during the planets own creation process especially smaller planets is unlikely, mars moons are likely captured astroids, our moon is from a huge collision and I don't see ceres with a moon of its own, I see Pluto with its moons, other dwarf planets are entirely on there own excluding a few, when I say a moon, I mean large planet like bodies not asteroids. I also didn't say that rocky planets aren't going to have moons I just said it's not guaranteed unlike larger planets.
Well this really depends on how red dwarf systems tend to be, since they're by far the most common star type in the universe and their systems are expected to be usually compact, with rocky planets and mini-neptunes, which doesn't allow too much space for moons
Respect for shouting out Cool Worlds
Just stumble across your channel today loving your content keep up the great work!!!!!

Any exomoonmoons?

They'd be called exosubmoons

what about exomoonmoonmoons
AYYY I'M NOT HOPELESSLY LATE FOR ONCE MOST OF THESE VIDEOS ARE UPLOADED WHILE I'M SLEEPING BUT THIS WAS PERFECTLY TIMED
I love how astronomers can infer such wild lore from just a handful of pixels. If they ever discover dark souls human progress will be derailed.
I really hope this video makes Beta Pictoris more popular, it's a really underrated system
Haumea has the fastest known planetary day length of 3.9 hours. Don't discount it as a planet just because it's of the dwarf variety.
Haumea: Egg-shaped, fast rotation, and rings
Pluto: Only for its heart-shaped region and its binary partner
*Get fuckin' rekt Pluto*
But also, Haumea has the fasted day length of any known dwarf planet, not of any planet. Talk all you want, but you'll never change my opinion on dwarf planet's.
I absolutely agree! Dwarf planets _are_ planets and trying to argue otherwise is stupid.
Wait, we've seen exocomets before exomoons?
We haven't exactly seen them or detected them individually, we just have detection of them in other planetary systems (In this case Beta Pictoris) kinda like how we discover disks around them
they look too big to be in a race, but I hope this one wins. I dont know how they are gonna fit them on the track though, update me on when the race starts.
Love your vids, I hope we get a grand tour of the Tau Ceti system.
Great video as always, didnt realize there were this many candidates
The existence of a moon this size makes me sure that submoons are a thing somewhere. Something like that would probably be incredibly hard to detect outside the solar system though, and considering we've never found one in our own system, I wonder when it will be that we find evidence of a submoon.
Perfect timing, when we going to da moon for lunch Ky? What would your first meal be? 😋🌓
*C h e e s e*
Such exciting times to be alive :)
i remember one of the hilarious facts that Beta pictoris B has a crazy rotation speed of 100,000Km per hour😂 i do imagine how fast the winds there
0:26 David Kipping disagree about it, isn’t just TTV it’s also showing a transit signal of the exomoon in the Kepler-1625b system same for Kepler-1708b.
How do you believe space travel will affect the religions of the common-day?
Religions' with end times popular doctrines likely will no longer have the apocalypse be exclusive to Earth (some by default aren't, e.g., Ragnarok); perhaps religions without end times will gain more favor, along with, as is already the case, religions that don't put an emphasis on the cosmos and things in it (e.g., celestial objects, meteorological phenomena, geological features, living things, etc.) being artificial.
Look at Christianity, its followers blindly tell you today "aaaah the Bible is not meant to be interpreted literally, have faith".
That leaves a lot of room to make up new bs and adap the lies to modern times.
If we meet aliens, they will have religions as well.
Seeing the first big space religion pop off would be so crazy.

Автор мне интересно откуда берёшь информацию о экзопланетах?
Xandros does a great planet/moon colonisation tier list about this
Why would planet tip over without a large moon? Aside from tiny precessional wobble, shouldn't outside forces favor an average tilt of zero?
omg im only 3 minutes late i was wondering if kyplanet would post a vid now yasss
Can you do a video on gj 1132 b
I'm so out of the loop, for some reason I thought we'd already started confirming the existence of exomoons, but maybe it's just me assuming exomoons exist because... well, it'd be really strange if our solar system was the only system in the galaxy where the planets had moons. Still, the first confirmed exomoon will be exciting! I wonder if there are Neptune-sized moons out there orbiting supermassive gas giants, if there are sub-moons... or would the gravity of the host planet not allow for that perhaps?
Would one of these large moons still be tidally locked to their planet?
Where would a exomoon need to be positioned to aviod the host planet's Van Allen radiation belt?
Would like to think exomoons could be habitatable, lot of unknowns currently.
A volcanic exomoon like Io would be very interesting
_"Boy, Io-p no humans see me orbiting this big planet!"_
*_(Cue laugh track.)_*
So,beta pictoraus b's moon names Beta Pictoraus b b
More or less as "Beta Pictoris b i".
how will they be named?
Good question.
Exoplanet Name-1
@@alexander14wiz Makes sense, sadly.
6:44 UM HOW??????
egg planets 😊
Oh look the division is here!
Beta Pictoris c, another jupiter size planet is in habitable zone of this star system
How do u think asteroids could be used for habitation? I don't think that's so safe
Anton Petrov made a video about this, titled Space Cities Out Of Asteroids and Graphene Bags? Intriguing O'Neill Cylinder Study.
m.ruclips.net/video/0_dm0xLtjnM/видео.html&pp=ygUYQXN0ZXJvaWQgZ3JhcGhlbmUgaG9sbG93
Basically, asteroids are like a bunch of rubble held together by gravity, so if they were spun to the speeds necessary to produce internal-surface centrifugal acceleration of 9.8m/s^2, aka, 1g, then they would fly apart - a solution could be to first bag them in a strong material, then spin them.
IMO I'd get economies of scale, where the asteroid materials would be refined, then make metals, plastics, etc. then fully-artificially construct O'Neill cylinders, Stanford toruses, etc.
Cool Worlds is on the case!
We need to terraform Mercury, Io, and Ceres. Make video
no we dont
there is a new study out that Earth and the moon may of co formed rather then there being a collision
Sitting larky issuance
They should call it Tobias
My phailinsiam!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's been a solid two minutes since you uploaded this and youtube didn't tell me. Shame.
I think life on a moon. Would be possible
Ат least we know that nothing bad will happen to humanity in this generation
