A real-time 3D visualization of the three-body gravitational problem with trailing effects and a starfield background.

What it is

Three celestial bodies gravitationally attracting each other, creating chaotic orbital patterns. The simulation shows motion trails and automatically resets when bodies fly apart. Simulation

A beautiful real-time 3D visualization of the chaotic three-body gravitational problem with elegant trailing effects and a dynamic starfield background.
