🪐 Cassini-Huygens Mission Simulator

Interactive 3D reconstruction of the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn: ring-plane crossings through the Cassini Division, the Huygens probe's 2005 parachute descent onto Titan, and a flyby through Enceladus's south-polar cryovolcanic plumes.

⚙ Under the hood

3D reconstruction of the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn: an inclined spacecraft orbit threads the Cassini Division ring-plane crossing on every pass, the Huygens probe descends by parachute through Titan's haze onto a surface with methane/ethane lakes, and a flyby samples the water-ice geysers erupting from Enceladus's south pole. Switch mission phase, adjust animation speed and reset the mission clock.
