Salacia

Salacia — dwarf planet, explore its interactive 3D model in Cosmoscope.

Explore Salacia in a live 3D Solar System. Follow its calculated motion and inspect real astronomical data, distances and orbital facts.

A dim, dark world named for the Roman goddess of the sea. Its low reflectivity and density make it a borderline dwarf planet — round, but never officially crowned. Its moon Actaea helped weigh it.

Explore Salacia in 3D

Cosmoscope places Salacia in the Solar System using astronomical ephemeris or orbital elements, updated for the simulation time. Explore its calculated motion, distance and orbital facts in the interactive 3D view. Accuracy depends on the orbital model and its valid time range.
