Space Science with Python - Part 20: Tisserand's Parameter Space
GitHub Link of today's session: https://github.com/ThomasAlbin/Astron...
In our last session we talked about Tisserand's Parameter and how it helps us to understand the astro-dynamical link or relationship between e.g. short-period comets and the gas giant Jupiter.
If you recall the equation, it was not really complex ... but it had the inclination, eccentricity and semi-major axis as input parameters; so basically: high dimensional input.
Now how does the solution space for the Tisserand's Parameter look like? Let's visualize it by creating an animation / GIF of all possible solutions w.r.t. Jupiter.
We will learn to create a stack of images and how to merge them into a proper animation using the library imageio.
