Thank you Halc.
This brings up another question I have regarding Binary Solar Systems:
If one star within a binary solar system should die and ( if both stars had their own planets revolving), would it be possible for the remaining planets of the dead star to be incorporated into the system of the remaining star, should that star be close enough to attract these planets into it's gravitational pull? Therefore adding new planets into the now singular System?
