JWST Looked for a Moon Around Two Habitable-Zone Worlds and Ran Into Stellar Noise
Key Takeaways
- JWST improved orbital and radius measurements for TOI-700 d and e.
- Researchers estimate a moon signal would be about 20 ppm, but stellar red noise reached roughly 46 ppm.
- The non-detection does not rule out moons; it shows the star masked the sought-after signal.
