2/ The disc in question, called a circumplanetary disc, surrounds the exoplanet PDS 70c, one of two giant, Jupiter-like planets orbiting a star nearly 400 light-years away.

3/ Astronomers had found hints of a “moon-forming” disc around this exoplanet before but, since they could not clearly tell the disc apart from its surrounding environment, they could not confirm its detection — until now.

Little personal announcement: After 4 years, today is actually my last day at SSTL and I will soon be heading to @UniofOxford (@OxfordPhysics) to start a DPhil (PhD) in Astrophysics! Specifically I'll be working on the HARMONI spectrograph for the Extremely Large Telescope @ESO! Image
Have had a phenomenal time designing and building optical payloads at SSTL (@BorisJohnson checking out the handiwork below). But having been considering a PhD for about 7 years, I decided now was the time to make the leap. Image
Calling all #ELT people, astronomers and instrumentation scientists alike, feel free to connect with me @DavidJonGooding
