Whirlpool GalaxyTwo galaxies pretending this is fineEvery planetarium has to lie. This one does too, but here, the stars are shown using real scientific data in your browser, not just painted (from assets).
The data server is actually in my house, so everything depends on my home internet upload speed. Also, I’m a software engineer who forgot graphics long time ago.
It works like a small telescope simulator: your computer/phone’s graphics card is always recalculating what you see, constantly updating what you “should” see based on the data.
