Points in Spaaaace!

Points in Spaaaace!

Click on a point and drag left or right, up or down, to get a depth. Negative X or Y position reduces the Z-depth and positive X or Y increases the Z-depth. As the mouse moves around the canvas/window the page draws a line between the initial point and the current mouse point, with a depth value. When you release the mouse pointer we have an XYZ coordinate for a point in 3D space which we display with perspective tricks. I want to be able to pick a point in a volume and also rotate the points around the center of the volume.

Drawing a Gumdrop-shaped SSTO

Rocket Design Utility

Click and drag to draw a circle representing a spherical LOX tank in red and two more smaller aqua circles representing a toroidal liquid hydrogen tank. I'm drawing a gumdrop rocket, ideally a hydrolox SSTO... The orange box represents internal volume for rocket engines, pumps, etc.

Gladiola for Mom.

Easter Animation

Click on three different points in the window to define a triangle and start generating a flower!

Yet Another World Map!

Land Mass!

World Map- This is a pretty standard equilateral projection of 520 by 260 pixels. I will divide the surface into pixels which are a given distance from a point and use that distance as the height. I had JS pile up thirty-three sets of heights to make this map.
