The Three-Body Problem refers to the difficulty in evaluating an analytical expression for an object under the influence of two massive bodies. This work shows the gravitational vector field from two such bodies. Occasionally, lines will also show curves of equipotential in this field, the centre of mass of the system, the orbital paths traced out. The system is periodic and will loop forever.
