Red Dwarfs Can Host Planets in Resonant Orbits

Celestial choreography.

Planets around red dwarfs sometimes orbit in resonances, where their orbital periods are simple ratios of each other, creating gravitational harmony.

Why This Matters

This matters because it stabilizes planetary systems over billions of years.

It also provides a laboratory for studying orbital dynamics and planetary interactions.

Did You Know?

Some red dwarf planets perform a perfect cosmic dance with each other.
