Parallax Distance 3D Explorer Step by Step


The Parallax Distance 3D Explorer starts as soon as the page loads: drag to orbit, scroll to zoom, and try the parallax presets. Everything renders on your own device - no install, no account.


Step 1 - Earth baseline

Press Earth baseline to see the opposite-orbit ends that form the 2 AU teaching base of the triangle.


Step 2 - Proxima preset

Press Proxima 0.7687" and read the panel distance about 1.30 pc from d = 1/p.


Step 3 - definition presets

Press 1 arcsec = 1 pc and 0.5 arcsec, then fullscreen to keep controls visible while the star depth follows 1/p.

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.
