LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.I wasn't going to model the earth. Just have the edge of the orbit. 3D printing it should be cheap. Not a major project. Just curious...

Like.
IMO, the best thing about @Filip Larsen 's Post#8 is that it emphasizes the axis tilt toward the Sun by indicating degrees off of a... -
LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.Maybe using an ellipse instead of a circle isn't crucial, but I just wanted to be authentic. Also was going to put a ball to be the sun...

LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.I believe so. I think in my design software I can just create a regular polygon with a multiple of 12 sides (enough to make it smooth)...

LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.I actually don't care the cause of weather changes. I just want to represent the weather conditions historically for a given year...

LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.Do I need to convert degrees into days and align the particular years first day of spring with the vernal equinox?

LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.The Earth's orbit is a perfect eclipse? No weird warps at either end? I still want to be kind of authentic with it. And how does one...

Wikipedia's page on Earth's orbit has a nice drawing that might aide in that assessment...

LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.I wanted to make the model just to give a visual of the weather of a given year. The cause of weather change doesn't matter to me. Just...

LLightningInAJar reacted to renormalize's post in the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file? with Like.
Suppose you draw the orbit as a 200mm (approximately 8 inch) diameter circle centered on the sun. Then the actual position of the Earth...

LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.I mean there would be a base thickness of the model in general and for example increase thickness in different pie sections based on say...
-
LLightningInAJar replied to the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file?.I want to be precise even if it might not be noticeable with a 3D printer's level of detail. Would it not be visually noticeable to see...

LLightningInAJar posted the thread High School Good drawing of Earth's orbit for model? Possibly vector file? in Astronomy and Astrophysics.I would like to create a 3D printable model of the earth's orbit around the sun and slice it into the months of the year. So basically a...
