L2 Lagrange Point Calculated: JWST’s Home

The James Webb Space Telescope is now at the L2 Lagrange Point. Very simple equations from basic physics are developed to determine the distance of the L2 Lagrange Point from Earth. An equation is also developed to determine the distance of the L1 Lagrange Point from Earth. The equations are easily solved through a simple graphing process and are also solved using Mathematica.
