tl;dr: An interactive atlas cataloging 3,915 known periodic solutions to the three-body problem, where three masses return to their initial positions and velocities after one orbital period. Orbits are arranged spatially by similarity, grouped into family "islands," with each orbit having its own page where it can be animated, perturbed, and compared against others. | |
