- What it does
A coplanar Kepler-orbit study for Mercury through Mars with an equal-time swept-area inspection. Example study (physics and mechanisms): a few KB of scene code on the shared runtime, with Overview and Close-up views, orbit and zoom, pause and reset. In our trial it drew a brass orrery with ringed orbits over a dark disc; it moved by itself between two stills a second apart.
- Get it
cd examples && pnpm install && pnpm dev, then open /orrery/ (add ?plate=1 to hide the page furniture for a capture)
- Needs (the whole pack)
Nothing to read the skill. Python 3 for the catalog helpers. Node with pnpm or npm for the starter and the examples. Optional: Playwright for its capture script, and Blender 4.2 or newer for its baked hero tier. The six anatomy studies need 169 MB of meshes fetched separately.
