TABLE OF CONTENTS
ABSTRACT

This mini project aims to create an interactive 3D visualization on of the solar

system show casing the planets and their relative positions, sizes, and orbits.

The visualization will include features like:

1. Accurate scaling and positioning of planets

2. Realistic orbits and trajectories

3. Informational pop-ups and labels- User-controlled camera movements

and zooming

INTRODUCTION

What is a Solar System?

➤ Our solar system consists of the Sun and 8 planets including Earth.

➤ Following are the planets in the Solar System in the given order:
1. Mercury

2. Venus

3. Earth

4. Mars

5. Jupiter

6. Saturn

7. Uranus

8. Neptune

➤ Python Project Details in this Python Project, we are going to visualize a Solar System. We
will see how the planets revolve around the sun. Also, we will be using different colors to show
different planets and assign them with speed and paths to make our project look real. We are
going to use the Math Module and Turtle Module to create objects in the solar system and depict
their movement.
This project will demonstrate the application of programming concepts, such as data
visualization on, object-oriented programming, and event-driven programming, to create
an educational and entertaining tool for understanding the solar system.

The final product will be a interactive and informative visualization on that can be used in
educational settings or for personal exploration.

OBJECTIVE

* To know about solar system

* To know about the different components of the solar system

* Here this project programmed in such a way every student can view that detail

* Several modules are used to program the project like turtle module and me module

* Turtle can draw intricate shapes using programs that repeat simple moves. In Python,
turtle graphics provides a representation of a physical "turtle"

* The math module in Python provides functions for handling math related tasks.

SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE

SDLC is a process followed for a so ware project, within a so ware organization. It consists of a
detailed plan describing how to develop, maintain, replace and alter or enhance specific so ware.
The life cycle defines a methodology for improving the quality of so ware and the overall
development process.

PHASES:

Stage 1: Defining Requirements.

Stage 2: Planning and Requirement Analysis.

Stage 3: Designing the Product Architecture.

Stage 4: Building or Developing the Product.

Stage 5: Testing the Product.

Stage 6: Deployment in the Market and Maintenance.

4
INSTALLATION PROCESS

1. Installation of python version 3.11.0

2. Visit www.python.org
3. Search for the latest version of python.
4. Click on install for all users after selecting windows executable installer depending of OS
of the system. Ex-windows 64 bit executable installer for 64 bit operating system.
5. Add python to path
6. Click install for all users.

INSTALLING TURTLE MODULE

To install Turtle, time and math module. Run this command in your terminal..This is the
preferred method to install Turtle, as it will always install the most recent stable release. If you
don't have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide you through the process.

HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
REQUIREMENTS

Processors: AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics 3.20 GHz

Operating System: Windows 11 Home Single Language

RAM : 8.00 GB

System type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

You have to install Python 3.12 and related packages You will need the required modules to be
installed and imported properly. You need to have all the specified images and other attachment
as required

MODULES IMPORTED

TURTLE MODULE
Turtle is a pre-installed Python library that enables users to create pictures and shapes by
providing them with a virtual canvas. The onscreen pen that you use for drawing is called the
turtle and this is what gives the library its name.

TIME MODULE
The module in Python provides functions for handling me-related tasks. The me- related tasks
includes, sleeping for a specified number of seconds and so on.

MATH MODULE
Math Module is an in-built Python library made to simplify mathematical tasks in Python. It
consists of various mathematical constants and functions that can be used as importing the
math module.

TESTING

To perform the testing of a Visualizer Solar System code

* In Python, I'll assume you have a project that simulates a solar system's celestial mechanics,
renders
the planets, and allows user interaction. Here's how you can approach testing the visualizer using
Python, covering unit testing, integra on testing, performance testing, and manual/automated
validation of visual output.

12
CONCLUSION

A solar system visualization serves as an effective educational tool, allowing users to explore
and understand the structure, motion, and scale of the solar system.
By simulating the positions and orbits of planets, moons, and other celestial bodies in real- me,
it helps provide a clearer comprehension of astronomical concepts that might otherwise be
abstract.
Additionally, the interactive nature of such a tool enhances engagement, making it easier for
students, researchers, and enthusiasts to grasp the dynamics of the universe.
Whether used for educational purposes or entertainment, a solar system visualizer bridges
the gap between theoretical knowledge and visual understanding, making space exploration
more accessible and immersive.
