	In my opinion, they should be at the trojan points and those
points
where space-time is very close to "flat" - gravitation pull very close
to zero in any direction. So, that's a ring around each planet, points
if there's a moon, too complex if there's lots or a ring. Otherwise, at
the Oort or Kuiper belt? Something like 100 AU out?
