Story
After creating the first split screen version (Color Split ), I wanted to push myself and actually implement the lowpoly space scene with weather that I’d previously abandoned in Fullscreen Lowpoly.
Design

This is one of those times where the final results almost perfectly match the mockup.
How it Works
Live Sun & Moon
The sun and moon rotate around the earth based on the current time, yes this is a very Geocentric model of how the solar system works. The color of space also changes throughout the day.
Weather
I fetch the weather data using DarkSky, and it’s displayed animated floating above the earth.
Illustrations
I created all of the images used in the scene with Maxon3D, they were previously created for an older version of the site that I abandoned (Fullscreen Lowpoly)
