🕳 Schwarzschild Spacetime: Embedding Diagram & Time Dilation (2D)

A 2D Canvas simulation of Schwarzschild black-hole spacetime: Flamm's paraboloid embedding diagram of curved space plus a live gravitational time-dilation graph. Adjust mass and observer distance to see the real Schwarzschild radius, photon sphere, and time-dilation factor computed from the metric.

A 2D companion to the 3D geodesics simulation: Flamm's paraboloid embedding diagram of curved space around a black hole, paired with a live graph of the real gravitational time-dilation factor. Adjust mass and observer distance to see the Schwarzschild radius, photon sphere, and time dilation computed from the actual metric.
