Scientific paper

A photographic search has been conducted for objects near the earth-moon Lagrangian positions that include the solar-synchronized positions in the stable L4/L5 libration orbits, the nonplanar orbits near L1/L2, earth-moon L3, and sun-earth L2. Limiting magnitude for the detection of libration objects near L3, L4, and L5 was 17-19 mag, 10-18 mag for L1/L2, and 14-16 mag for sun-earth L2. No natural or artificial objects have been found.
