(astronomy, Internet slang) A moon that orbits a larger moon.
A subtle, low-intensity form of orbiting where the surveillance is present but careful — viewing stories occasionally rather than instantly, liking posts sporadically rather than compulsively, maintaining just enough digital presence to stay on someone's radar without triggering obvious recognition. Low key orbiting is the version with plausible deniability intact: you can always claim you just happened to see their post rather than admitting you've had their profile on rotation. It's orbiting with a discipline that makes it more sustainable and, arguably, more insidious.
