How to Use Aurora 3D Explorer
Raise teaching Kp, watch the oval expand equatorward, and read green 557.7 nm / red 630.0 nm altitudes in the facts panel.
- Open Aurora 3D Explorer and wait for Earth plus the glowing oval to paint.
- Drag to orbit the night side; keep the facts panel visible.
- Press Kp + / Kp - and watch the oval move toward lower teaching latitudes.
- Pause spin to compare green (~90-150 km), red (~200-300 km), and purple lower-fringe bands.
- Reset to Kp 3 and repeat so the emission altitudes stay the takeaway.
Why trust these tools
- Ten-plus years of web tooling. The freetoolonline editorial team has shipped browser-based utilities since 2015. The goal has never changed: get you to a working output fast, without an install.
- No install, no sign-up. Open a tool and get a working output in seconds - nothing to download and no account to create. Tools that need heavy processing run it on our service, so even a low-powered machine gets the job done.
- Analytics stops at the page view. We measure which pages get visited, not what you type or upload inside a tool. There is nothing to sign in to and no profile is attached to your input.
- Open-source core components. The processing engines underneath (libheif, libde265, pdf-lib, terser, clean-css, ffmpeg.wasm, and others) are public and audit-able. We link to each one in its tool page's footer.
- Free, with or without ads. All tools are fully functional without sign-up. The Disable Ads button in the header is always available if you need a distraction-free run.
