Would it be possible for a planet to naturally have a moon or large natural satellite at one of its Lagrange points?
If so would it then also be able to have a second moon that would be orbiting this hypothetical planet?
I'm a little confused as to why this question was closed as unclear. . . Maybe it doesn't demonstrate a huge amount of research, but that's not a reason to close it. — HDE 226868 ♦23 hours ago
@HDE226868 You might be able to tell me if my understanding is wrong; in a system with a ring of 9 solar mass stars orbiting a 1,000,000 solar mass black hole, the 9 stars are going to be putting out more radiation than a single 1 solar mass star, but that will only push the habitable zone out a ways, and any planets in that zone will likely be fine radiation wise (assuming things like magnetic fields are all in order).
I just want to make sure that the above statement is in line with the known science
I think so. . . If you've got a black hole that massive, it's going to have an accretion disk and some other structures around it that could be a couple dozen light-years across (fast-moving gas clouds, for instance); those might prove slightly problematic for life. But the stars should be orbiting far enough away from each other that each star won't influence the other stars's habitable zones, yeah.
Malign Science: An alternative origin for Grime's Graves
Work in progress, ran out of time for now.
We know that Grime's Graves in Norfolk was a flint mine that was exploited at least as early as c.2300BC
@HDE226868 In theory it would have to be a completely manufactured system, and might not have much of an accretion disk. What it would have is over 2,800,000 planets.

The answer is 2,862,106 earths in the goldilocks zone
How to get 2,862,106 earths in habitable orbits:
Rules, they have to all be exactly the same mass.
Multiple planets can be in the same orbit, so long as there are at leas...
Seems like a really neat setting looking for a story.
It really is... I finished up a project, my project board is looking kinda barren, and the people who I would ask about new projects are all out of the office...
