How It Works

This simulation uses Three.js and React Three Fiber to create a 3D scene with:

  • A textured Earth that slowly rotates on its axis
  • A satellite following an elliptical orbit with realistic orbital mechanics
  • A visualization of the orbital path
  • Interactive controls for exploring the simulation
