Here is a rather fantastic tool – the Solar System online interactive model by California’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Planets, Moons, known asteroids and satellites are included, in real time – or accelerated time. And you can pick a starting time – the current date/time or any time between 1950 and 2050. Tag along with any satellite, moon or planet and see how the solar system looks from there. Or fly free – in your own virtual spaceship. Explore the Earth, the Solar System or even the Exo-planets found so far. It’s a pretty incredible tool in understanding where we are in this universe.
