Magnetosphere VR Simulation - Inkwell Studio Project for UNH and NASA MMS Mission Outreach

Abstract

The project mission is to create an educational Virtual Reality simulation to demonstrate magnetic fields in space. Our team has reached our Year 1 Milestone goals, which were to create a visually pleasing, easily approachable experience, where the user can throw a particle into these fields and see how it is affected by them. The project will be used for education & outreach in grade K-12 classrooms, as well as at scientific conferences, and to aid researchers in visualizing their work. More information about the NASA Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Mission can be found here. https://mms.gsfc.nasa.gov/
