Wouldn't "perpendicular orbits" be a better description than "right angled planets?"

- ksaj 5y agoEssentially 2 planets orbit north-south and one orbits their star's equator, making the two orbital planes at right angles. Or perpendicular. Both mean the same thing, and both are used in the article.
- Grakel 5y agoI'm just complaining about "right angled planets." Sounds like a Tetris piece orbiting a star.
