🌋 2D Plate Tectonics Simulator: Euler Poles, Plate Boundaries, Hotspot Chain and Seafloor Age Lab

Eight rigid plates rotate about editable Euler poles on a synthetic Earth-like planet: live velocity arrows, divergent, convergent and transform boundary classification, hotspot volcano chains, the seafloor age-depth and heat-flow laws and magnetic polarity stripes, with eight in-page numerical checks.
