Press the Green flag to start or to go back to 0 AU Use your scroll wheel to either go up or down in space, with each "scroll" equaling one million kilometers traveled! (Full screen for better results) If you find that the speed is a little too slow, you can use the left and right arrow keys to change the rate of travel from km to Astronomical Units to light years. Distance units: 1 = 1000000km 2 = 1 AU (Astronomical Unit) 3 = 1 ly (Light Year)
This is a model of the solar system that I have coded for an astronomy class. Inshallah I will get extra credit Incidentally, as I made this in two days, it's a bit rougher than I would like and there may be many bugs. Politely ignore them as they are all features trust. As of right now, the celestial objects available are: Intrasellar Objects: Mercury - .4 AU Venus - .72 AU Earth - 1 AU Mars - 1.52 Jupiter - 5.2 AU Saturn - 9.5 AU Uranus 19.8 AU Neptune - 30 AU Pluto - 39 AU Interstellar Objects: Proxima Centauri (The nearest star) - 4 ly Polaris (North Star) - 433 ly Gaia BH1 (Nearest Black Hole) - 1000 ly Sagittarius A* (Center of Milky Way) - 27000 ly If you get to Sagittarius A, take a break you've been here too long...
