          Was reading the scientific article backstorys today, specificly the one about jump gate technology. It says that there are "strict limitations on jump gate travel". One of these limitations is: "First of all, jump gates can only be constructed in systems with two or more suns, because of the resonance nodes. This effectively makes one in every three systems ineligible for jump gate construction." Stargates can only be operational in systems with at least two stars. Are there any binary(two star) systems? I've never seen any and I very much doubt that all the systems with stargatates (that is all of them) are binary. This means that none of the stargates corrently in existance in the eve cluster can operate according to eve universe physics....
  z0mg!!  The gate is a lie!  no one has ever traveld between systems!  it's all a dream!  it's not real!! !!

          More modern jump gates utilize the technology from ship-based jump drives to connect a stable wormhole, instead of how the the traditional jump gates create wormholes?

          That's how they RP'd off the second 'star' in the edge of every system for a long time. They eventually fixed that bug, and never fixed the RP behind it. ------- CEO of Maids. No I didn't pick the name. I've grown rather fond of it though.Poor PR in progress!

  I would love to see some binary star systems. Aren't they very popular IRL?

          The second star in each system is a distant star, you can't see it big as a "fire globe" I guess. I'm starting reading novels (since a week or two) from the begining and I was thinking the same.
  IT'S A TARP !! Fetchez la vache !

          One also wonders why there are no expeditions to the other singular stars, since they are reachable in days at most with a warp drive. A cruiser can traverse a light year in 6 hours. A carrier specifically fitted for warp range can do a light year in 12 hours, but can fly 3 or 4 light years non stop, and has all the cargo space and ships to set up a base in the new system, which can then be reached via jump drive instantly. --------------- ∞ TQFE

  now this would be a cool thing to implement

          A covops only needs hours to probably reach any other star from the jump gate netted stars. Pop cyno, get the freighters and carriers in, build outpost. --------------- ∞ TQFE

  It would be nice to have some variety in the structure of system types like this.
  Further more it'd be cool to have massive structures that are a station/gate combo or just a gate 50-100km off of a station
  Or if entire systems were deadspace or dust clouds or toxic clouds and the system map showed trouble spots..
  It'd make eve way more interesting.
  and the op, its gates CANT be made in multi star systems, not the other way around.

          Op is incorrect. 
  The binary system idea does not refer to two proximal stars in the same solar system, but two stars to form a binary system (the wordings a ***** i know lol).
  In other words, the systems counterpart star cld be one from say a nebula that you can see in the background when ur zooming around eve in ur ship. EVE history

  actually yea, binary star systems are more the norm than our single star system we live in.
  always wondered why we didn't have any binaries or even 3 star systems.

  You got your chicken and egg turned around.
  The back story was there long before the "north star" bug showed up. And I don't recall CCP ever linking the two together, that was all just player conjecture about a bug that lasted quite awhile.
