I think you need to learn more about what we do know about the universe, physics and chemistry, and what we don't know (which is a lot).

Not knowing or understanding things can easily lead to fear.

And stay away from drugs.

Then this prompt is stupid. We can't immediately put a satellite anywhere, so what's the point of asking where you'd do that impossible thing.

By answering with both assumptions, my answer is more thorough and logically consistent with the illogical question.

As if nothing is orbiting Sagittarius A*. The Lagrange point can be between it and another star, or between other stars. My point was that we could get it to a place of neutral gravity near the black hole.
