This is a scale model of the solar system. It includes all 147 named moons, 86 minor planets- (that includes 8 doubles), 8 of their moons, and the 8 planets. This is NOT perfectly accurate. Positions of moons can be very inaccurate. Orbits are correct, though. CONTROLS: SENSITIVITY: Change the slider to change sensitivity. 0 is low, 1 is average, 2 is high, and 3 is very high. NOTE: You can set it to something outside this range! Very high sensitivities are required to see most of the small moons. X to set sensitivity on user input. TIME CONTROL: P to pause. Space to enter a timestep. To enter a timestep: Enter a number, preceded by one of the following prefixes: y = year (365.24 days) d = day h = hour m = minute s = second So 'd3' would be 3 days, and 'm2.765' would be 2.765 minutes. ZOOM: Up and down arrows to zoom. Click on a planet, moon or asteroid to center it. When centered on a double system, hit C to center the barycenter. Hover over an object to show its name. The text in parentheses is the body it orbits, followed by its discovery order. (In the case of the planets, it's the order from the sun). R to reset all aspects
Lots of credit to @TheHockeyist for developing the formulas. I adapted them for use with clones. Art credit to me and @TheHockeyist. For 79360 Sila-Nunam: This is the system name. The two bodies are labeled individually, hence one is called '79360 Sila'. Sorry 'bout that- no way around it really.
