A planet in a perpendicular orbit around two brown dwarfs | ESO News

Using ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), astronomers have found an exoplanet orbiting a pair of peculiar stars at an angle of 90 degrees. There have previously been hints that these so-called polar planets around two stars could exist, but we now have clear evidence that this is the case. This video summarises the discovery, explaining the nature of these peculiar stars and the method astronomers used to find this odd planet.
