I know what you're saying, but it's not the double-star-ness I was worried
about, more the fact that it's very unlikely that planets could form
around a star such as beta Lyrae in the first place, mainly due to its high
rotation period, high-velocity stellar wind and outspiralling gas streams,
all of which make it a brilliant subject for artwork!
