See tuvalu.santafe.edu/~moore/gallery.html for links to animated diagrams and papers. Of course, these orbits are extremely unlikely to occur naturally. They're reasonably stable to small perturbations of position and velocity, but not to variations in the masses, which need to be almost identical. | |

Although I've currently accepted the answer to the question State vectors of “interesting” multiple stars there is always room for a better one. | |
