This 2D visual model illustrates the scale of the sun and planets in our solar system, and their current distance from each other.
This is an interactive model of the solar system that is quite, but not entirely, realistic. The vast distances and differences in space and time that are present in the real solar system can make observation boring or intimidating.
Online 3D simulation of the Solar System and night sky in real-time - the Sun, planets, dwarf planets, comets, stars and constellations.
Drag and drop planets and comets around the Sun in this 2D simulation. Learn about the components of a solar system, such as stars, planets, moons, asteroids and comets.
Make your own solar system by dragging bodies and the V symbol (V for velocity) or by typing into the initial settings table in the upper-left corner of the simulation. Distances, masses, and times are in arbitrary units. Invent your own! Keep masses less than a few thousand or risk strange results.
jsOrrery - Javascript Solar System Simulator. Scenario. Solar System. Date. The available scenarios are in fact collections of numbers that describe celestial bodies and their position. These numbers are coming, for the most part, from Nasa's websites. Their accuracy is quite impressive, more than enough for the context of this simulation.
Simplified 2D Solar System simulation (planets and main asteroid belt) built with JS ES6 native tools. There are no dependencies to install. To start the solar system simulation just open SolarSystem.html in Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.
