Cosmolux is an interactive 3D web application developed for the NASA Space Apps Challenge. It visualizes Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) in real-time, offering users an immersive experience to explore asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies near Earth.
Experience Cosmolux in action: cosmolux.netlify.app
Real-Time 3D Orrery: Visualize the positions and orbits of NEOs using WebGL technology powered by Three.js.
Dynamic Information Panels: Access detailed data on each object, including size, velocity, and proximity to Earth.
Interactive Timeline Controls: Observe the motion of NEOs over time, enhancing understanding of their trajectories.
Cosmolux addresses the challenge of making complex astronomical data accessible and engaging. By integrating NASA's Near-Earth Object(NEO) API, it transforms raw data into an intuitive visual interface, aiding in education and awareness about space hazards and planetary defense.
Three.js: For rendering interactive 3D graphics in the browser.
R: Utilized for data processing and integration with NASA's APIs.
NASA NEO API: Provides real-time data on Near-Earth Objects.
