Instructions

Hey guys, Backstory: This is a math experiment with Jsquish! So, I was doing a math assignment on Astronomy and orbits, and I went to Khan Academy. They had this really cool article, and it helped a lot. Then at the end, they gave a summary that gave me an idea. What if I use the formula, and port it into scratch! Curated by @EveningWaves on September 27th. Top Loved on September 28th! There are eight variables you can edit, ClockWise?, starX, starY, and orbitRadius, planetSpeed, superFunMode, moonSpeed, and moonOrbitRadius. They all modify the orbit itself, this uses math and trigonometry.

Description
