Astronomers have discovered the first aktolun

The project network investigate anomalies and astrophysical observations, sponsored by the Americans, the Japanese and new Zealanders for the first time in astronomical activities of scientists were able to find an analogue of our satellite the moon, which revolves around a distant unknown planet. This is stated in the American edition of "Space".

In fact, researchers are unlikely to ever be able to see exactly what specifically they managed to find, because subsequent studies found the system impossible. With special telescopes that are installed in New Zealand and Australia, astronomers were able to capture the lensing effect. It happens when a large object is in front of the star, if you look at it with a telescope. At the time of passage of the planet across the star disk, his field amplifies and distorts the light of the stars similar to the lens.

Experts calculated that it was likely distant giant planet, like rocky ecolony or Jupiter, which flies freely in space. There is also a suggestion that it faded a tiny star, and in its orbit a planet of size larger than the Earth.

According to Wes Traub, one of the employees of a research project studying exoplanets, one of the options can be a planet with a satellite. If this assumption is correct, it is likely that this finding will open the system of a very different kind. However, the scientist is inclined to the version with the star, as it is more inherent in nature.

Disappointing only that the true nature of the discoveries will forever remain a mystery. Such things happen not often, and therefore the subsequent observation impossible.

The publication noted that to date, astronomers were able to access more than 1,700 kinozvezdy planets, but at the moment, they have not managed to find the first aktywno.
