🌞 Solar Wind & Earth's Magnetosphere (2D)

A 2D particle simulation. Solar wind particles stream toward Earth. The particles bend around the bow shock and the magnetopause. You can change four sliders: wind speed, wind density, magnetic field strength, and storm activity. Higher storm activity compresses the magnetosphere and lights up the aurora.
