An interactive, educational and accurate Solar System simulation

A planetarium on your Desktop!

PlanetWerks is a three-dimensional widget-sized tour through our solar system. A sophisticated control system brings you amazing views and fun facts! Movement in PlanetWerks 2 incorporates accurate 2-body motion; so objects orbit the sun the same way they do in the actual solar system!

Also included, switch to a linear scale model to see just how vast the solar system really is. Four levels of precision rotation and zoom control to help get those great views! Then click planets and satellites for fun facts and statistics!

2.3 Changelog:

Added dwarf planets Haumea and Makemake

2.2 Changelog:

Added orbital path trails; toggle with [T]
Corrected an orientation calculation error
Fixed a bug affecting retrograde orbits under linear speed
Many performance and memory tweaks
Added [Backspace] to mimic [Delete] for Macbook keyboards
Added [Shift]+[Delete] to mimic [Insert] for Mac keyboards
Transparency fixes for *NIX desktops

Спасибо за виджет.

i suppose the slogan "the fastest browser on earth" must be changed with "the fastest browser in the solar system"

So beautiful!

Do you have a version that I could use on my Ning family-network?

Thanks!

@scarecroe: Version 2.2 now includes orbit path trails

You can toggle them off and on using the [T] key.

This is amazing! Suggestion for future version: ability to toggle orbital path.

Amazing widget. You bought me at Fullscreen. Linear scale is the icing.

@Helmers:
Animated planets are certainly possible, from a coding perspective anyway. However there are two big problems to overcome: 1) There aren't a lot of really great full-faced images of most planets, especially the outer ones; and 2) More images mean a larger widget, and also more memory use, so since I am just using CSS positioning, it would probably be very very slow on most computers. Even the current widget at 1600x1200 shows signs of lag on my computer

My plans for the next version are to allow the addition of new objects through a menu interface, so you can, for example, input orbit characteristics of a newly discovered object and see what path it takes. I'm also thinking of seeing whether or not moving the whole system is feasible, rather than keeping the sun eternally at (0,0,0).

Thanks very much for the comments everyone!

I love the Widget, but want animated planets!

Never mind on my request for greater background, after playing, I found the full page option. VERY COOL WIDGET!

発言者 infinitejim@yahoo.com, # 2007/12/15 15:26:22

Nice Widget!
Can you increase the background space so that the Outer Planets (etc) don't go off the screen on increased zoom leveles? Even without a background, I'd like to increase the size of it (using the Home key), and have the Outer Planets have more space to move! Maybe there's a way, if so, let me know? Thx, Jim. Again, NICE WIDGET.
