my three suns

From CNN today:

“Astronomers have detected a planet outside our solar system with “not one, but three suns”:http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/space/07/14/planet.suns.reut/index.html, a finding that challenges astronomers’ theories of planetary formation.”

Indeed. I used to think that the whole multiple-suns (think Tatooine) sci-fi thing was artistic license. Truth really is stranger than fiction…
