It's in orbit round L2, not stationary relative to Earth. Video as linked by another comment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cUe4oMk69E&list=TLGG8tIphgpDAHky

- Maxburn 5y agoWatching that video it seems to me relative to earth the speed is Zero? Distance to the earth is not changing. Relative to other things sure it's moving around.
- layer8 5y agoMaybe it’s zero relative to the earth-moon center of mass, and/or the rotation simply isn’t that exact for the relative speed to be zero.
