Battlestar Galactica star system found! :)
Although these writers are unimaginatively talking about the double-star
Tatooine of the Star Wars universe, they don't really know that this star system actually more closely describes the quadruple-star Cyrannus star system of the rebooted Battlestar Galactica 2003 universe. "Amateur astronomers have helped discover an alien planet with two suns and a twinkling twist: The entire twin-sun setup, a real-life version of Tatooine from "Star Wars," is orbited by two more stars — a solar system that is the first of its kind known."
