Subject: RE: BS: Planet discovered with 2 suns
The suns would not always be close in the sky, I now discover, but would never be so far apart that there would be no night. Short nights, some of the time, yes. How different from our situation that would be would depend on the angle of the planet's axis. The smaller sun is in a more elliptical orbit, so would be nearer at some times than others, affecting the insolation.
