Binary star systems common with planets

For a long time it was assumed that it was impossible or near-impossible to have stable planets in systems with two suns orbiting one another. However, a few years ago the first such systems with planets were discovered, and today New Scientist reports that it is in fact those binary systems where planets can be found with a greater probability than for example in solar systems with just one sun.

This is, of course, good for those who promote the idea that Earth has been repeatedly visited by Aliens from Sirius, which is a system with at least two, and possibly three, stars. Whether it in practice makes their case any stronger, I don’t know.
