There's been a lot of excitement in recent years around the discovery of thousands of exoplanets, including dozens that might have the right conditions for supporting life. But new research suggests a number of moons around giant planets beyond our solar system might also be lively places. 

An international team of scientists has identified 121 gas giant planets, each at least three times more massive than Earth, that orbit in the habitable zones of their stars and are each expected to play host to several large moons.
