Never Before Seen Star System With an Exciting Habitable Zone Planet

WOOO!!! Thank you for mentioning us over at Zooniverse. I am a volunteer for The Daily Minor Planet Survey, TESS Planet Hunters and SETI. I hope this video and future ones will bring in more volunteers, we are making excellent science.

Hello Wonderful Anton. Person here. Thanks again for keeping us all updated on some of the coolest science being discovered.

I was part of Zooniverse and helped discover an exoplanet. Very rewarding!

I can just sense David Kipping jumping with excitement at this. And so am I. 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.

Your channel is my favorite to learn what's going on outside of our planet because you only report the truth. I don't want to hear BS just because it sounds good I only want to know the facts. Thank you so much for the work you do !

You'd expect the second star to disrupt the planets' orbits pretty quickly. Looking forward to seeing more about this system. Thanks, Anton.

05:33 YouTube - 'Cool Worlds Lab' & Dr David Kipping WILL be excited to investigate this moon situation! 👍 😎

Man coming within 4 1/2 AU of a G-type with planets is crazy to think about. That would be absolutely terrifying.

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.

You know that we are in a epoch of discovery when you have to lament the amount of news and that the time is not enough to cover them all. Thanks for making these summary's and easy to digest videos so I can keep up to date with all the new stuff.

I have to think the name was based on king arthur's percival based on that character's long questing ; as in the long period of the companion... but that is just my guess 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.

Thanks Anton, another great presentation.

Wow, what if there were several moons with life...possibly with very different forms of life on each moon. There may be an abundance of interesting findings on them. Excited to learn more🎉😊

Thank you Anton. You are a wonderful person.

I'm stupid, but I immediately thought this system is off the wall crazy. I am finding so many of these new discoveries unbelievable. Thanks, Anton, for making it real.

Hey! I am part of the NASA/JPL Exoplanet Watch "citizen scientist" team. I've observed over a dozen transits, reduced the data and submitted light curves to AAVSO.

Wikipedia has no such name explanation for Percival, 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 (different spellings in different languages can often be decoded phonetically). At its core, this is an old tale about a man who has to pass a test and is transformed by an adventure. A wonderful castle is discovered, which seems like a new home. But then the hero realizes that he belongs somewhere else and has to go home. 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. Many names given by astronomers go back to really old stories.

Problema dos 3 corpos. . Vídeo interessante

Would something like this explain the multi year winters and summers in Westeros (game of thrones)? I bet these moons have dragons. I also bet you can't prove me wrong :)

Not many people can seriously claim habital exos and would get my click.. Anton you deserve all the trust though. Thanks for your diligence man. I wish you all the best.
