Racer 3D: Planet Explorer

Drive a racecar through the different planets.

Planet sizes are to scale relative to other planets.

Planet distances apart are to scale, but on a much smaller scale because of how big the Solar System is.

Planets are tilted on the X-axis according to NASA data.

Planets rotate on the Y-Axis according to NASA data, scaled down so it doesn't take earth 24 hours to rotate. Also sure you don't want to wait 243 days to see Venus rotate one time.

The track is only built beyond earth. Next release should have the track built all the way to Pluto. Yes, I added poor Pluto to the list of "planets".

Racetrack colors are based on an approximation of the color of the planet they are near. The lane divider is based on the inversion of that color for a pleasant aesthetic.

Use Arrow Keys or WASD Keys to move.

Let me know how I am doing so far. Thank You.
