The tidal forces on those planets must be enormous. Also bet that the orbits are not stable. Hot for a while and cold for a while.

Sometimes I wish I could have been born about 100 years in the future. Just imagine what we will find when we finally get out there to some of these systems. Meteorites made of solid gold-platinum-palladium. Planets with 10 moons visible in the night sky. Planets where there are Lobsters the size of Elephants and plenty of Lemons and Butter. And Hush Puppies.

Aha! So maybe Star Wars *did* occur in a galaxy far, far away.
