Solar system map generator.

Saturday 13th june 2020. Planetmaker create your own planet real or imaginary. Generates randomised star system skeletons ready to fill with stories and adventure. There are two parts to this tool.

My own work on solar system generators started in 1970 when i encountered asimov s popularization of dole s book planets for man. Planetmaker allows you to create and tweak your own planet using image textures lighting and more importantly your imagination. The chart above shows the sun at the centre the yellow ball surrounded by the solar system s innermost. May or may not generate life supporting systems.

In this solar system map you can see the planetary positions from 3000 bce to 3000 ce and also see when each planet is in retrograde. Approximate positions available between 1900 to 2100 date range. These maps are not stored being generated from your session. Force this system to include a terrestrial world.

Color by security status. In 1971 i created my own random solar system generator in fortran. For reference our solar system s star called the sun is a g type main sequence star. The planets today shows you where the planets are now as a live display a free online orrery.

An orrery is a model of the solar system that shows the positions of the planets along their orbits around the sun. Visualize the orbits of the main solar system objects in an interactive 3d solar system simulator. With this solar system creator you can easily generate a random solar system complete with basic information on each planet or choose to create your own and add your own descriptions for each planet. I immediately purchased a copy of the second edition of habitable planets for man which had just been published by american elsevier.
