SITUATION(is it possible):
is it possible to have two stars circling around each other BUT
but.... to also have a planet (yes a planet) that is {now get THIS}
is it also possible to have a PLANET that is positioned exactly on the centre of GRAVITY that is sitting [[[THAT IS SITTING]]] in the middle of the two stars (day all the time WOAH)
cos the stars gravity cancell out and the planet just stays in the middle **chilling in the middle** just heaps relaxed about it {about IT} WOah!
it would be like..... Liiiike the ppplllaaannneeetttt:::: has two SUN MooNS.....{sun moon!] BOAHR!

Theoretically, yes this is possible, in that in an idea world there are certain points where gravity from each star cancels out.
In reality, this is never going to happen, because the planet would need to be exactly dead on that point, with very little margin of error. Any little random fluctuations (of which there are plenty in star systems) will knock it out of that position and send if off on another orbit.
So it simply isn't going to happen.

No. For a planet to be stably situated between two orbiting stars would require the planet to be positioned to a degree of precision impossible in the real world.
-
There are some stable positions for planets in binary star systems. However, I don't think we've actually observed them yet.
-
I don't see how the planet could have a stable position. It would be like balancing a golf ball on the back of a single hump camel with no hair.
