Solar system simulation

A numeric simulation of our current solar system.

Instalation guide

Dependencies

• Python 3 (I think any version should be fine)
• Numpy (Install with pip3 install numpy
  • You can install the pip command with sudo apt install python3-pip

Cloning the repository and running the simulation

1. Navigate to a folder where you want to store the program.
2. Use the command git clone https://github.com/marcusGH/solar-system-simulation.git . to clone the repository into that folder.
3. In the same directory as main.py run the simulation with python3 main.py DELTAT where DELTAT is the timestep used in the simulation.

Simulation controls

• Use ASDW to move about
• Zoom in and out using the up and down arrows, respectively.
