Planetary Motion Simulator
I was trying to remember who it was that a few months ago was looking for a planetary motion simulator? This one is awesome. Try all the different possibilities.

Cool, David.
Here's a link to a site that does the calculations for making a scale model of the solar system. For example, if you make your model Sun the size of a baseball, Pluto (if it still counts) would be 4/1000 inches diameter, and nearly 1000 feet away. Lots of other info and links too. http://www.exploratorium.edu/ronh/so...tem/index.html Enjoy, Chris. |
