I've noticed something in my travels since the patch - what's with this massively bright star everywhere? Is this a Christmas thing? Screenshots included.

While there's nothing wrong with your explanation, I still say it's the EVE Gate.

Er no, two stars orbiting as closely as you describe would eat each other, unless they were spinning rapidly enough that fluctuations tidal forces would rip every planet into a gigantic version of saturn's rings.
For ex: Alpha Centauri is a binary star system, and its member stars are .15light years apart.
Thats ~9500AU
The orbit of Pluto,for comparison, is 30-50au
And there is STILL a certain amount of math that indicates they would probably eat any planets that formed, unless they formed closer than in the solar system.

Didn't you hear about the recent supernova bathing EVE with high energy NERF™ radiation?
