The article under review is an elementary introduction to the present state of the three-body problem. History of the three-body problem and classical exact solutions to the problem are discussed. The restricted three-body problem is considered, the notion of a libration point is introduced, and the stability of libration points is discussed. Astronomical examples illustrate the presented theory. The article is based on a lecture given by the author for secondary school teachers in the framework of the ``International Soros Science Educational Program'' and is aimed at presenting contemporary developments in mathematics on an elementary level understandable to secondary school teachers and pupils.
