"Professor, you said on the phone that you had great news?"
"Yes. I've solved a crime."
"How did you do this?"
"It was easy as pie."
"That easy, eh?"
"You don't understand. I'm a terrible cook. My pies look like pancakes. When I say 'as easy as pie,' I mean it was hard."
"Oh. Well. What have you found?"
"You know the asteroid belt."
"Yes."
"Do you know it used to be a planet?"
"No. I did not know this."
"Yes. The reason it is now a bunch of asteroids is that the planet it used to be was shot!"
"Wow! Do you know who did it?"
"Yes. It was Mars. Mars had the gun that shot at the planet."
"How did you figure it out?"
"Piece of cake..."
"No, I'm full."
"As I was saying, piece of cake, the gun is still visible on Mars."
"Astounding!"
"You won't guess what's next."
"What?"
"Earth was the getaway driver!"

There are a LOT of moons out past the #asteroidbelt, so I'm going to break it down and only include a small selection.
In the thread I'll include some fun facts about the moons in case you need some help deciding!

Dwarf planet #Ceres may have its origin in the #asteroidbelt, #mpsgoettingen scientists argue in a new paper in the Journal of Geophysical Research Planets. Yellowish bright material in #ConsusCrater is rich in ammonium and connected to Ceres’ curios #cryovolcanism, they find.

#AsteroidBelt Reveals #Water Vapor For First Time In History, Is There #Life?

NASA's James Webb telescope detects water vapour around a comet in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. This is notable given Comet Read's proximity to the Sun. It also finds a lack of carbon dioxide, which is surprising.
