Fork of Solar System
✓ Published0🌍 Public
This animation displays the planets of the Solar System in a horizontal line, with their relative sizes shown to scale but distances compressed. Each celestial body appears sequentially, growing into place with its label beneath it. The visualization uses D3.js version 7.8.5, specifically the `select`, `transition`, and `easeLinear` APIs to animate circle radii and text opacity. Planet data, including names and sizes, comes from Wikipedia’s list of gravitationally rounded objects, though distance values are simplified for visual clarity.
AI-generated descriptionA visualization of the solar system. Relative sizes to scale, distances not to scale.
Data from Wikipedia: List of gravitationally rounded objects of the Solar System.
Challenge
- Option A: Use this template to visualize the relative size of various numbers.
- Option B: Add SVG Gradients to make the planets look more planet-like
