VR Map for Satellite Orbits
Website - https://gaganyatri.earth
- Why
- Being an astronaut has been a dream job for many kids.
Helping them see the outer space and show how space missions work is the idea for our team.
- Challenge
- Imagine an Earth-orbiting satellite, or an Earth-to-Moon mission that requires an orbital transfer maneuver,
or a spacecraft in a cyclical orbit around Earth and Mars, or a deep space probe that traverses the asteroid belt.
Understanding and visualizing sophisticated space missions isn’t easy!
Your challenge is to create an interactive, virtual reality application that enables users to visualize a space
mission including the mission concept, orbital trajectories, and mission timeline.
- Summary
- Create a VR Map for Earth to Mars missions. Based on the future starship missions,
help to share knowledge on how the spacecrafts travel the distance between the planets.
