  5. After 25 years of the prediction of the possibility of observations, and despite the many hundred of well studied transiting #exoplanet systems, we are still waiting for the announcement of the first confirmed #exomoon.

    Thwre are three steps that can lead to the discovery.

    The steps are the formation, the orbital dynamics and long-term stability, and the observability of a given exomoon in a given system.
