Project Interstellar's system

[Anroalh12]

Hi. One of my new year resolutions was to create the solar system of the movie "Interstellar".

Star1 = Pantagruel
Planet1 = Gargantua
Gargantua:Moon1 = Miller
Gargantua:Moon2 = Mann
Gargantua:Moon3 = Edmunds

The planets are created (it is very easy to create them). Now I'm working on Gargantua's mesh. It would be like this:

The Interstellar solar system is currently being developed, but the spacecraft within the film such as Ranger and Endurance are yet to come.

Oh my...

Looking really good!

Cheers,

[Nicholander]

Could you show us the already created planets? They must look fantastic!

Well, we'll make do with the Arrow and Deltagliders... It's not like they're not up to any task. :lol:

Ok. I will upload them on Tuesday evening beacuse I have a physics exam on Monday moorning and a Chemistry exam on Tuesday moorning also and I want to get good marks.

WOW! Awesome! I am looking forward to exploring this thrilling universe!
Is there any way to simulate a warp-hole / tunnel / worm between Saturn and Pantagruel? By the way, I didn't figure out in the movie. ... is Pantagruel the black hole or is it star bending around a black hole?

From what i understand, Pentagruel is the black hole, and it's its accretion disk that illuminates the system, which comes from an ancient neutron star.

The black hole pictured is Gargantua. I missed the whole pantagruel thing, so i just looked it up, pantagruel is a neutron star Solarliner mentioned that is paired with gargantua, they are an old binary system.

I thought there was a proper Star in the system, anyway if those planets were illuminated by an accretion disk, then that's a lot of xrays.

Someone has made the system for spaceengine, looks neat from the screenshots.

Did you actually upload the system? I ask because I can't find it on OHM's list of newest add-ons.

I didn't upload the images because when I'm going to upload any image on OF there's an error, so I have uploaded them to Google+.

Pantagruel is the name of a neutron star that orbits the black hole Gargantua.

Pantagruel & Gargantua is a binary-system containing a black hole orbited by Miller, Mann, and a neutron star - which is orbited by Edmunds, located within a few months flight from the wormhole.

Do you think the drone scene should be deleted from the movie as I think it is ridiculous that they see a military drone in the sky and then able to control it within a few minutes by using their Laptop, certainly it would use WIFI (not) and allow anyone to control it. I do understand the drone is supposed of have flown low because of gravitational anomalies but it is a good 5-10 minutes wasted time in the film and it is long.

 

[statickid]

@jroly probably better to discuss the plot elements of the film in its dedicated thread, this thread is about an Orbiter add-on

interstellar discussion

 

[gattispilot]

Not sure if the NASA ship could get you there.

Edmunds:

Funny, I could swear I've seen that one somewhere else ...

Mann:

uv ajed?

 

[Anroalh12]

What is "uv ajed"?

What is "uv ajed"?

If you look at the image, it will tell you what transformation to apply here

Ahhh, now I know what you say.
