How to Use Gravity Well 3D Explorer - Step by Step
Start on Earth (11.2 km/s), switch to Moon / Jupiter / Sun to watch the embedding sheet deepen, then toggle Show r_s (Sun) to read the ~2.95 km Schwarzschild literacy without leaving the browser.
- Open Gravity Well 3D Explorer and wait for the sheet to paint.
- Drag to orbit, scroll or pinch to zoom, and keep the facts panel visible on wide screens.
- Tap Moon 2.38, Earth 11.2, Jupiter 59.5, and Sun 617.5 to compare well depth.
- Optional: Show r_s (Sun) and Exaggerated depth - remember on-screen size is teaching scale.
- Read the table values aloud so escape speeds stay the reliable 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.
