Three.js Solar System

What I did

Learned Three.js by building a not-to-scale model solar system.

Context

I was interested in learning a 3D library, so I read through some Three.js docs and started to learn what I could do. After building and animating a few cubes and other shapes, I realized that I could build a sort of model solar system (albeit not at scale), using NASA's planet imagery.

This was a fun project for me to get my feet wet with a new technology that interested me.
