Kapan memakai Debris Disk 3D Explorer

Use this explorer when you want to see a mature, already-formed debris disk and how its shape revealed a hidden planet, and skip it when you want a still-forming protoplanetary disk instead.

• Showing the first circumstellar disk ever directly photographed, in 1984
• Explaining how a disk's warp can reveal a planet before it is directly imaged
• Comparing the real main-disk size (400 AU) to the fainter extended halo (1,000 AU)

This is an educational visualization with an exaggerated warp and heavily sped-up rotation.

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