Scientists have discovered a rare triple-star system with a gas giant planet similar in size to Jupiter. Researchers at Harvard-Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics in US found that a binary system one assumed to be a single star was actually a pair of stars orbiting one another and are actually a part of the triple-star system. This is rare that three stars are appearing in the sky. The new discovery is the fourth and the closest one yet allowing for a better look than possible, researchers said.
