🧪 3D Roche Limit Simulator

This simulation allows users to visualize the Roche Limit – the distance around a celestial body beyond which gravitational forces are too weak to hold it together, leading to tidal disruption. By adjusting parameters like density and rotation rate, you can observe how these factors impact the limit's position and shape.
