I remade NASA's Planetary Fact Sheet and open-sourced it

Demo: https://eduardmur.github.io/planetary/

NASA publishes metric data on the planets of the solar system, Earth included, but it's really dull to read. Now you can interact with 3D models of the planets and explore facts about them in an interactive format.

Ha, thanks! I ran the numbers. The cold-gas thrusters have an exhaust velocity of about 682 m/s, so by the rocket equation, reaching escape velocity needs a mass ratio of about 13 million. That's roughly 30 million tonnes of compressed air for one Roadster :)

Thanks! There's no cockpit view yet, but it's a good idea. In the demo, the on-screen readout peaked at 3.3 g while the thrusters were braking the fall. But that's a brief spike, and to black out you need a high g-force that lasts several seconds.

Cool implementation. Is this vibe coding? And if so, which model did you use?
