ThreeBody

ThreeBody is a cool app that helps you figure out how three planets move in space. It's all about the three body problem, which is a classic question in celestial mechanics. This problem looks at how three planets interact under the law of universal gravitation.

Easy Installation and Use

The best part? This application doesn’t take long to install! You won’t have to deal with any tricky setup steps. Once it’s up and running, it automatically shows you the paths of the three planets, complete with some awesome animations.

Visual Appeal

The background looks nice, but honestly, it could be even better with a high-definition image to make it more attractive to users.

Customizable Calculations

You can choose how you want to calculate things. There are options for fixed or adaptive steps. Plus, you can adjust the integration limits and set your desired maximum steps along with the relative error.

Just remember: your integration step values should be below 1.00e-6, while the maximum step needs to be higher than that.

Clear Planet Tracking

This app makes it easy to see each planet's path since they’re all different colors. You can even change the sky size and tweak other settings right in the app!

Interactive Features

If you click on a planet, you can change its radius, mass, position, speed, and even keep its momentum zero if you want!

Personal Touches

You get some neat options for customization too! Change up the background image and pick what each planet looks like. You can also set a start delay of a few seconds if that suits your style.

Saving Your Work

ThreeBody lets you save images of your work and offers printer settings where you can adjust size, orientation, and margins.
