Lived there Jun70-Jun71. Loved the water.

Gtmo is ALWAYS lovely;

This is interesting. Seems that to get enough batteries together to do any REAL work is completely unfeasible.

K2 is the gain of your amplifier. It seems to be fixed.

Think of cave kid grubbing through the ground cover popping what ever into their mouths. If it didn't kill them they most likely learned what was good and what was not. Animal, vegetable what ever, if it got into its hands, into the mouth it went.

Thanks all for your input, I am digesting it. still think a detailed gravitational potential diagram of L2 would help al lot while explaining the l2 halo orbit.

Ok so it is not a gravitation potential plot. That needs to be made very clear. Now the existence and location of the L points do not depend in any way on this centrifugal potential. They are completely determined by the 2 body sun Earth system. Seeing the raw gravitational potential plot would...

I'll give you that. However L2 should be ignorantly higher then all. That is not what I see on that plot. It is barely higher then L1. And is lost in the shadows of L4 and 5.

excep that way I see it L2 is the lowest potential on the map are these not potential maps?

Ok, just a rendition. It would be nice if one could just add the potential of Earth to the potential of sun. Unfortunately the common expression of potential is the result of the integral of force, a constant of integration is dropped. I see the Earth and sun forces acting in parallel along the...

neither of those make any sense. L2 is the throne and crown of the L points. The Earth sun L4 and L5 are tiny dimples at 97 million miles from earth. L2 is a mountain in the back yard.

What is that a plot of.

I am sorry that does not make any sense to me. The all of the Earth sun L point are determined by the Earth sun potential field. As worked out by Lagrange and Euler in the late 1770s.

I am sure glad that some one posted that image. It is just wrong. Consider that the L4 and L5 points are 97e6 mi away from Earth and the sun, while L2 is 1e6 mi from Earth and the 98e6 mi from the sun. how in any way can L4 and L5 higher potential then L2. I simply refuse to to believe that l4...

Been a while since I encountered a problem where I needed reliable help. No other place on the web like this. Being retired now, my biggest problem has been when to crawl out of bed and make a pot of coffee. Glad to hear you are making some headway. While sure that this is closer to the problem...
