Space Weather Visual Simulator

Visualizes an Earth-centered 3D view of the magnetosphere, Van Allen belts, solar particle sources, and directional backgrounds such as GCR and interstellar flow.
Drag on the canvas to rotate around Earth. Use mouse wheel to zoom. The Sun is fixed to the +X direction in the scene, so dayside features appear sunward and the magnetotail extends anti-sunward.
