To be specific: Yeah, I know that there are five Lagrangian points - you mention that L1, L2 and L3 are unstable in all systems. That's true, but it's still a relative term. Compared to other orbits in the system, it's far more stable. > Halo's rotational angular momentum is about 1/600 its orbital > angular momentum, so it will be insignificant. Ah, okay. - Butcher
