Earth To The Sun At The Speed Of Light – Blender
This is a real time simulation of the journey from the earth to the sun at the speed of light. The earth is about 93 million miles from the sun and it takes the sun’s light about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel to earth.
The scene in Blender is to scale. The moon, earth, venus, mercury and the sun are scaled appropriately in comparison to each other and the distance between them is also to scale. The real life to scale size is 1,000,000:1.
This is a 60fps simulation and it took around 30,000 frames. Each frame took about 1 second to render using Eevee,
