How It Works
This simulation uses a Python backend with FastAPI deployed on Render.com to calculate accurate orbital mechanics. The Next.js frontend visualizes the results using Three.js.
- Python backend calculates satellite trajectory using real physics (deployed on Render.com)
- Parametric controls allow adjusting orbital characteristics
- Interactive 3D visualization renders the calculated orbit
- Cloud-hosted solution that scales automatically
About Render.com Free Tier
This simulation uses Render.com's free tier, which spins down after 15 minutes of inactivity. If this is the first request in a while, it may take up to 1 minute for the server to restart and respond. Subsequent requests will be much faster.
