 <h2>Figure of 8 orbit</h2>
 
-<p>The figure of 8 solution in the three-body problem refers to a unique and special trajectory where three celestial bodies (e.g., planets, stars) move in a figure of 8 shaped pattern around their mutual center of mass. This is special because it represents a stable and periodic solution to the three-body problem, which is known for its complexity and lack of general solutions.</p>

This is special because it represents a stable and periodic solution to the three-body problem, which is known for its complexity and lack of general solutions.</p>
 
 <p>In the figure of 8 solution, each of the three bodies follows the same looping path, but with a phase difference such that when one body is at one end of the loop, the other two are symmetrically positioned elsewhere along the path. The bodies maintain equal distances from each other throughout their motion, and their velocities and positions are perfectly balanced to maintain this periodic motion.</p>
