Visualization of the Sun-Earth Lagrange points. Orbital mechanics is a fun subject, as it involves a lot of seemingly empty space that’s nevertheless full of very real forces, all of which must ...

Lagrange Points are the rare oases, stationary islands in space. As a result, they are invaluable real estate where we can build vast space habitats.

Among the performers are the Lagrange Points – cosmic positions shaped by the gravitational interplay between two massive actors, like the Sun and Earth. These points give rise to amplified ...
