Lagrange Point Space Colonies: L4 and L5 Habitat Guide
Lagrange points—gravitationally stable regions in space—are poised to host humanity's first permanent deep-space colonies by the 2030s. With proven stability demonstrated by the James Webb Space Telescope at L2 and natural trojan asteroids at L4/L5, these cosmic harbors offer near-zero station-keeping costs and strategic locations for lunar mining hubs, Mars communication relays, and solar power satellites. Yet radiation exposure, micrometeoroid threats, supply logistics, and uncertain econom...
