NASA Wants to Place a Space Station in a Weird Orbit

In light of the commercial space race, NASA has been making plans to build a space station that would become the gateway for people going to the moon. But they want to place it in a weird orbit. They call it the Near-Rectiliniar Halo Orbit. It seems complicated as the name it has been given but in simplistic terms, it looks like a parabola around the moon.

Usually, it's the zucchini that does this. You look at the little squash in the morning, and do some watering. By the time you turn around, it's grown big enough to attack you.
