Web-based Space Mission Visualization(MFS-34033-1)

This software suite consists of demonstration web-apps for orbital trajectories around the Earth and planets around the Sun. Files include single page applications implemented in HyperText Markup Language (HTML), JavaScript, functional calls to 3D graphics code libraries including X3Dom and ThreeJS, supporting data files, and some documentation. One of the demonstration web-apps is model of the inner solar system model that uses JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) data file containing orbital parameters. Another demonstration web-app is the inner solar system and potentially hazardous asteroids. Tutorial examples include an Earth globe with orbital trajectories in JavaScript, R code for simulating an elliptical orbit, and converting orbital trajectory data from a fixed column table to JSON.
