When to use Galilean Moons 3D Explorer

Use the Galilean Moons 3D Explorer when you need a quick browser view of Jupiter's four big moons and the Laplace lock - and skip it when you need ephemerides for every irregular satellite.

  • Classroom demos of the Io-Europa-Ganymede 4:2:1 period lock with Callisto as the outsider
  • Quick refresher before a telescope night aimed at Jupiter's moons
  • Comparing moon sizes (Ganymede larger than Mercury) without leaving the browser

This page does not replace planetarium ephemerides, does not list Jupiter's dozens of smaller moons, and does not solve n-body gravity.

Walk the controls in the step-by-step guide, or compare options in vs alternatives. Open the Galilean Moons 3D Explorer.

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.
