Our Solar System, with just one star in the sky, may be a bit of an oddball. Most of the stars in the Milky Way galaxy actually have at least one gravitationally bound stellar companion, meaning that two-starred worlds like Tatooine are probably not uncommon.

Two's company, three's a crowd?

“Star Wars” showed us a planet with two suns in the sky. Now a UNLV researcher and an international team are doing one better: They may have identified the first planet orbiting around three stars.

A discovery was recently made by UNLV astronomers 1,300 light years away from earth.

Forget about one or two sunsets — three might be possible in this solar system.

Two's company, three's a crowd?

The existence of a circumtriple planet demonstrates that planets may form in any system, even in the most strange ways.

Researchers believe they may have discovered the very first instance of a planet orbiting three stars at once, although they still haven’t seen it yet.

A Jupiter-sized world may be kicking up dust in the triple-star system GW Ori.

Zooming to the future.

The Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Science has selected 65 graduate students representing 29 states for the Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) program’s 2021 Solicitation 1 cycle.

Astronomers may have just found the first ever evidence of a planet orbiting three stars at the same time.
