AI Workflow Automation70%
Welcome back to another tutorial video! In this video I am going to be showing you how to make a planet simulation using Python! The goal of this tutorial is to simulate the orbits of different planets around the sun using real astronomical values! We're also going to apply the force of gravity on each of the planets so we get an accurate elliptical orbit! I hope you enjoy!
