A Tatooine-like world with a key difference from the desert planet in "Star Wars" has been serendipitously discovered orbiting not two stars, but a pair of brown dwarfs. What's more, this wacky planet doesn't orbit around the brown dwarfs' equator, but instead up and down over their poles.
In the "Star Wars" universe, Luke Skywalker famously came from the planet of Tatooine, which had two suns and double sunsets. Tatooine is in a circumbinary orbit, which means that it doesn't orbit one star, but instead orbits both stars of a binary system.
