Satellite View Of Our Solar System

It also includes information on the diameter mass and orbital period of each body and also a diagram showing the orbit of each body from the sun.
Satellite view of our solar system. With lots of 3d features this application allows you to explore the solar system with many basic facts thrown in. The solar wind surge reached voyager 2 while it was still just inside our solar system. The moon has a very thin atmosphere called an exosphere. The position of the planets moons and spacecraft are shown where they are right now.
Solar system scope is a model of solar system night sky and outer space in real time with accurate positions of objects and lots of interesting facts. This digital orrery a model of the solar system runs on a light mobile mobile friendly version of nasa s eyes on the solar system software. The solar system consists of the eight planets that orbit our sun and other celestial bodies such as moons comets asteroids minor planets and dust and gas. The moon s distance from earth is about 240 000 miles 385 000km.
It also allows you to see all the stars and constellations. There are rugged mountains several kilometers high layered materials forming plateaus and many irregular depressions called volcanic calderas. The smallest features that can be discerned are 2 5 kilometers in size. This simulated view of our solar system runs on real data.
Our scientists and hardworking robots are exploring the wild frontiers of our solar system. Sun is considered. Nasa s real time science encyclopedia of deep space exploration. Nasa s interstellar boundary explorer ibex has for the first time mapped out the structure of this tail which is shaped like a four leaf clover.
The diagram above shows all the planets and dwarf planets and also the moon and the asteroid belt in order from the sun. Io the most volcanic body in the solar system is seen in the highest resolution obtained to date by nasa s galileo spacecraft. The moon is earth s only natural satellite and the fifth largest moon in the solar system. The moon s presence helps stabilize our planet s wobble which helps stabilize our climate.
We hope you will have as much fun exploring the universe with our app as do we while making it.
