Animated Orrery
Project Description
This Project is a procedurally animated orrery showcasing a solar system with planets, moons, and a sun.
The Main goal of this project is to procedurally animate the solar system without using the parent / child relationship in unity
Each planet is set to rotate around the sun in code, and each moon revolves around a specific planet. Each planet and moon rotate around their selected object at different speeds and distances, and the rotation on their axis is not co-planar with their orbit.
This project also features a smooth camera system that allows you to move around and zoom into each object. There is also a menu system that allows the user to select which planet they are focused on, and there are buttons to control how fast the planets revolve around the sun.
