Star Wars fans love Tatooine and its twin suns, but astronomers working with one of the world's biggest telescopes have done Luke Skywalker's home planet one better. They've discovered a bizarre world with not two but three suns - and seasons that last longer than a human lifetime.
Known as HD 131399Ab, the unusual exoplanet is located 320 light-years from Earth in the large southern constellation Centaurus. It's a gas giant like Jupiter but about four times as massive.
