Lagrangian Points (gravity wow)

I recently started to interest in a space sim game called Pioneer. (I most likely will start learn C++ just to be able to help out and make that great game even GREATER, hopefully…)

Anyhow, I often find myself scratching my head trying to understand terms like the one here explained, “Lagrangian Points” what are those points?! Where are they?

Well, super simple if you watch the video.
But in simple terms are “balance points” where objects can stay in weird, but sometimes stable, orbits. And actually many asteroids can be found on those points, that actually are orbits.
