Inspiration
Team members enjoy space and physics and this was the perfect project for us.
What it does
This is a simulation for orbital gravitational pulls and data visualization helping to increase interest in whatever statistic is presented, along with increasing interest in the sciences. The physics engine, graphics, and servers are all made by hand using node and html canvas by our team in our goal of increasing interest in science and statistics through the use of interactive games.
How I built it
Worked as a team to build it together on github by dividing up tasks
Challenges I ran into
Issues with getting data from the API in the front end javascript code
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Setting up an API for the service and orbital gravity for planets
What I learned
How to work effectively in a limited amount of time.
What's next for Orbital mechanic simulation with data visualization
Improved UI
