This animated WebGL visualization depicts a full solar system with textured planets, orbital paths, and Earth’s magnetic field shown as curved dipole field lines emanating from labeled north and south magnetic poles. Using Three.js with the OrbitControls module, the scene renders the Sun, all eight planets, Saturn’s rings, and a starry background. Field lines follow the dipole equation r = C·sin²(θ), with interactive camera controls for rotation, zoom, and pan.

Solar System with Earth's Magnetic Field

This project shows a 3D visualization of our solar system with a focus on Earth's magnetic field represented by field lines.

Features

  • Complete solar system with the Sun and all 8 planets
  • Realistic planet textures
  • Planetary orbits and rotations
  • Earth's magnetic field lines visualized as dipole field emanating from poles
  • Saturn with rings
  • Interactive camera controls (rotate, zoom, pan)
  • Starry background

Technologies Used

  • Three.js for 3D rendering
  • JavaScript ES modules
  • HTML5 and CSS

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.

Note: Planet sizes and distances are not to scale to improve visualization.
