  • Binary Star Systems: Understanding Gravitational Partnerships
    Two stars that share the same source of gravity are called a binary star system.

    Here's why:

    * Binary: The word "binary" means consisting of two parts.

    * Star system: This refers to a group of stars that are gravitationally bound to each other.

    So, a binary star system is a system where two stars orbit around a common center of mass, held together by their mutual gravitational attraction.
