Scientists find a planet that orbits two suns

Just an interesting one here. More more planets are being detected by NASA every week and the variety of means that the chance of advanced life out there increases with every discovery.

The discovery is reminiscent of a Star wars scene of the planet Tatooine - a planet with 2 suns. One again proving that

Two binary stars turning around each other, with a planet that orbits around the two!..one would think!?.....OR in a figure eight around the two...you can't help but wonder how the seasons might work, or if there is a night, or partly one anyway!? and if the planet has oceans, how the tide might work, so many questions to look forward to, but two suns!! reminds me of a joke about two possums crossing the road,and one said to the other,LOOK possom! two moons tonight....WHOOOOSH!!.......?
