astronomer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.

'rarest moon moving' is the wordplay.
'moving' indicates an anagram.
'rarest'+'moon'='rarestmoon'
'rarestmoon' with letters rearranged gives 'ASTRONOMER'.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for astronomer that I've seen before include "Observer of space" , "Moon-starer (anag)" , "Moon starer (anag.)" , "Dorado may be contemplated by me" , "Space studier" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
