An interactive data visualization of the eight planets of the Solar System. Map any data — distance from the Sun, diameter, mass, moon count, orbital period — to the X axis, Y axis, or bubble size, and the chart animates smoothly to the new view. Hover or tap any planet for its full stats. It turns a table of planetary facts into something you can explore and compare at a glance.

Frequently asked

What can I learn from Planet Explorer?

By remapping the axes you can see relationships in the Solar System directly — how Jupiter dwarfs the rocky inner planets, how moon counts climb with distance from the Sun, and how orbital period grows with distance.

Why is it a bubble chart?

A bubble chart shows three variables at once — X, Y, and bubble size — so you can compare planets across multiple dimensions in a single picture instead of reading a table row by row.

Can I build an interactive data visualization like this?

Yes. This is one self-contained HTML file with the dataset embedded inline and drawn on the 2D canvas. Paste a complete HTML file at arcadelab.ai/publish to publish a data visualization with a permanent URL.
