Orbital Simulations and the N-Body Problem


An "n-body problem" describes the motion of any n-bodies while under each others' gravitational field. The general form equation would describe the kinematic motion of any n bodies, accurately modeling the mechanics of any and all celestial bodies. Although the exact solution has yet to be found, our team wanted to contribute to this growing body of research by creating 2-D simulations designed to help visualize the n-body problem.
