The Dance of Binary Stars - In this animation, we visualized the dynamic motion of a binary star system, where two stars orbit a common gravitational center. The movement of these stars follows the fundamental laws of orbital mechanics: as they approach each other near the barycenter, their speed increases due to gravitational acceleration, and as they move farther apart, they slow down. This effect, governed by Kepler's laws of planetary motion, results in an elliptical orbit where the stars co
