Helioscope

Distances, masses, and orbital speeds are real. Earth, the Moon, and Mars carry NASA terrain. The Sun, Jupiter, Saturn, and their major moons wear Hubble, Cassini, Galileo, and SDO mosaics. Worlds start at true scale. After a fly-in, the camera is yours: rotate, zoom, and graze the surface.

  • Drag to orbit · pinch or scroll to the surface · right-drag or two-finger to pan
  • Tap a world for its almanac — volume, density, escape, Δv from Earth
  • On Earth, the Moon, and Mars, tap a pin for spaceports and landings
  • View from any planet, moon, or dwarf · warp time from freeze to decades
