Researchers discovered that while the inner regions near binary stars are too chaotic for planet formation, outer regions provide ideal conditions, leading to more frequent and larger planet formation than around single stars.
Some planets in these systems may be ejected into deep space as rogue worlds, suggesting that planets orbiting two stars could be far more common in the galaxy than previously believed.
