The detectability of habitable exomoons

Despite the number of known exoplanets increasing on an almost weekly basis, the question as to whether exoplanets host moons remains unanswered. Exomoons could be potential seats for life, as well as improving our understanding of planetary formation and celestial mechanics. Here we summarize our findings from an investigation into how detectable habitable-zone exomoons are with Kepler-class photometry.
