Whatever you heard, this isn't physically possible as others here have pointed out. We have one big moon, and there isn't going to be a planet or anything else that will look like a second moon. Sorry.

Like Swift, the first thing that I suspected was another retelling of the nonsense about Mars, which is a story that has going around for a few years now. We're asking questions because we would like to determine if what you heard was that incorrect Mars story, but the bottom line is: No double moon.
