Astronomers believe they may have found a second supermoon 5,500 light years away which is orbiting a planet the size of Jupiter.

Researchers spotted the giant exomoon candidate orbiting the planet Kepler 1708b, a world 5,500 light years from Earth, in the direction of the Cygna and Lyra constellations.
