==Trivia==
 
*The use of the term "excommunicate" in this context is odd and suggets something of a religious nature to the Celestials. It strongly suggest some sort of religeous context. Whether they are a religeon, are "gods," have delusions of godhood or some such is unknown.
 
*In the anime version of these events, Moon was partnered with the female android [[Artemis]] who is not mentioned at all in the IDW material. She may not exist in this continuity or may be part of the Celestials, who knows.


Artemis still served as an agent of the Celestials, travelling from planet to planet to observe on their behalf. {{storylink|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook}}
