The same here. That was the motivation to start learning WebGL. As I'm a JS developer, R3F was the most comfortable 'WebGL-like thing' to go for me.

So far I'm happy with R3F, but it's even more powerful when you can build your own 3D models (in engines like 'Blender' for instance) and integrate them into the canvas.

Right! I just couldn't stop myself from not adding Starbase to this project!:D

Well...maybe I should add a new category (work-in-progress launch sites). Noted;)

HAHA...Love aLtErNaTiVe SoLuTiOnS!:v

Emmm...Thank you!

Glad you noticed the details;)

Thank you all for the great comments. I'm glad most of you liked it!

It's just the beginning of the journey for SpaceInBrowser. If you would like to know about the upcoming developments, consider following SIB's Twitter account: https://twitter.com/spaceinbrowser

Noted. Thanks for sharing!

Glad you liked it!

Maybe one day;)

HAHA it's not, no worries! The goal is to bring the most space-like experience to your browser, the rest is not important.

End of this century is too late!:P

Thanks!

I disabled the zooming option on purpose as 3JS geometries (the celestial bodies) are empty inside. Any 3D dev who knows how to fix this issue, please let me know:)

These CSS media queries will kill me one day -_- Sorry for the trouble you had there.

I know about NASA Eyes. That's the greatest and most realistic illustration of the space I've ever seen in the browser. The Beta version of my project might look similar to NASA Eyes, but it'll start to differ soon once developed further.

One hint: just imagine using your digital signature (NFT or whatever you call it) and traveling in space with your VR devices in your browser? Sounds cool?! This is where this project is heading to.

Check out this album too: https://lazerhawk.bandcamp.com/album/redline

In browser, I'd recommend NASA Eyes.

Let's 'teleport' for now. We'll 'travel' in the upcoming versions:)

My bad...I should've used the word 'teleport' not 'travel':P

Glad to hear it! Enjoy!;)

Absolutely! Not accurate at all! I had this debate a lot during the development: being realistic vs being user-friendly. I'd still choose being realistic because I don't want to build a game but to 'simulate' a real space.

When it comes to the distance between the Moon and the Earth, I think the problem there is more about the sizes of them rather than distance.

Agree with "far side". I'll change it, let's not mislead people:) Thanks for the comment. Very helpful!

Yeap, it's not a real animation of the ISS (at least its real speed is much slower than it shows in the app). Sorry for disappointment lol

Hopefully soon I'll be able to integrate it to some open APIs (showing real ISS location). Thanks!

I wasn't sure about responsiveness in the mobile version...glad it works fine. Enjoy!

Oh, I was struggling with the scrollbars issue. What you mentioned seems like a solution. I'll def try it. Thanks!

Yes! That's the motivation I've too. Bringing all these experience to browser without downloading anything.

More planets, more space stations coming soon. Stay tuned!:)

Thanks! Interesting...Tbh, I was expecting responsive design issues. Would you mind to tell me what device you're using? Knowing the screen sizes might help me to fix it.

Thanks! It's my first project on R3F. So I was both learning and building. It took less than 2 months: I spent last 2 weeks mainly on performance optimization as it was super slow.

Agree. Europe is the closest it's been to armed conflict in the past 30 years at least...

Nice! Haven't heard about it. Thanks for sharing

They def don't:) It's a CSS-animation bug that I need to fix. Will do. Thanks!
