Wonder what the Almanac for those worlds look like.

"Plant foobar root after sun A eclipses sun B but before first spring, unless a second winter will preceed the first spring, but only at high tide."

From the article:

“First of all you’d see a double sunrise and a double sun set every day and second of all, your climate would be very very odd because as the stars orbit each other, the distance from the planet to each star is changing and so the amount of sunlight you get is a very complex function of time.”
- Jerome Orosz

Before, it was believed planets could only orbit a single sun, because a double sun, also known as a double star, would make the system too chaotic.
- JournoList

Seems like the stars orbit each other, and the planet orbits the two stars.

Wow. Praise the Lord for making things so complex and beautiful!

JRandomFreeper : LOL!
