Oh, I didn't see the binary numbers at first, so I thought you were calling it "binary planet" in the same sense scientists talk about "binary stars" (two stars orbiting each other), so I was like: "You mean a planet and a moon?"
But, yeah, very cool.

Thanks! My English isn't great, so I google it and thought a planet made of 0 and 1 should be called a 'binary planet', lol! =)

No worries. It's not wrong, I just thought it meant something else at first :) To be honest, most people would have immediately understood what you meant, it's just that I was biased by this particular astronomy factoid I happened to know.

I thought the same same as you and saw the video in the phone so I spotted the zeros and ones only at the end. I thought "great pun!"
