Fly through the actual solar system on real ephemeris data, follow live spacecraft along their trajectories, or watch Earth's climate variables as a spinning globe. The positions are not decorative — they are the real ones.
A planetarium in the browser: set a location and a date and get the sky exactly as it appears, with constellations, planets and deep-sky objects identified. Wind time forward to watch the year turn.
Scroll outward from an astronaut to the observable universe, one object at a time. A single idea executed well, and the rest of neal.fun is worth the detour.
