Rare system of five stars discovered

[Shawnster]

 

The quintuplet consists of a pair of closely linked stars - binaries - one of which has a lone companion; it is the first known system of its kind.

 

The pair of stars orbit around a mutual centre of gravity, but are separated by more than the distance of Pluto's orbit around the Sun.

So, for you science fiction fans, they've discovered the location of The 'Verse or BSG's 12 Colonies!

Hmmmmm .... I wonder if it would have any effect on the Kessel Run?
