Fork of Fork of Fork of Fork of Earth with Magnetic Field
This interactive 3D visualization displays a solar system with all eight planets orbiting the Sun, featuring Earth's magnetic field as colored dipole field lines curving from the north to south magnetic poles. The scene also includes Saturn's rings, planetary textures, a starry background, and camera controls. Built with Three.js and OrbitControls, the visualization animates planetary rotations and orbits while offering an audio narration that triggers an automatic camera focus on Earth's magnetic field. Planet sizes and distances are intentionally not to scale for visual clarity.

How It Works
The magnetic field is represented using dipole field equations that create curved lines from the north pole to the south pole. The field lines follow the mathematical formula: r = C * sin²(θ), which d
The blue marker indicates the north magnetic pole, and the orange marker indicates the south magnetic pole.
When the audio explanation plays, the camera will automatically focus on Earth's magnetic field for better visualization.
Note: Planet sizes and distances are not to scale to improve visualization.
