L is for Lagrange Points



Lagrange points are great for astronomy.  These points in space give us a nice, stable spot to keep telescopes and things.  However, I don't feel like I can give a proper description of what Lagrange points are.  I'll let Phil Plait, also known as The Bad Astronomer, explain what they are and why they're important.

  1. Love Phil Plait. He's in a bunch of shows that I watch along with Michio Kaku.
