I am trying to find the easiest and simplest way of calculating the distance that two celestial bodies would need to be apart, in order for those celestial bodies to never get closer or further away from each other. I have the values of the mass, density, radius, volume and gravity of the two...

oops, A VERY IMPORTANT DETAIL that I forgot to mention is that the celestial body with the small mass is orbiting around the celestial body with the larger mass. does this help?

Thanks for the reply, what equation would I use to work out their common center of mass? Keep in mind that the only values I have are mass, volume, density, gravity and radius.
