Can 3 planets rotate around each other like this?
+0

I was wondering if three planets can rotate around each other so that:
Two of the planets are smaller and rotate around each other
Both of the smaller planets rotate around another, bigger planet.
It's a bit hard to explain, so I made a (low-quality, just illustrative, using Mercury, Venus and Earth like planets) animation using GIMP and Blender:
Is this possible (not exactly like in the animation, of course)?
