The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is a space telescope for NASA’s Explorers program, designed to search for exoplanets using the transit method in an area 400 times larger than that covered by the Kepler mission. It was launched on April 18, 2018 atop a Falcon 9 rocket. During its primary mission, it is expected to find more than 20,000 exoplanets, compared to about 3,800 exoplanets known when it launched 3D Model is ready to download for free, this model contains 11294 polygons.

Wasp-76b, a planet where it rains liquid iron 3D Model.

The model is an artist’s view of the atmosphere of WASP-76b, an ultrahot giant extrasolar planet about twice the size of Jupiter which orbits very close to its star, WASP-76 (a class F7 star), at a distance which is almost double the size of the Sun. As in the case of our moon, WASP-76b always shows the same face to its star because it rotates exactly once every time it orbits around its star (its rate of spin is synchronized with its rate of revolution). Scientists recently discovered that the face of the planet facing the star reaches temperatures so high that the iron is vaporized. As a result, when iron vapor is transported to the cooler side of the planet due to strong winds, it condenses in the atmosphere producing liquid iron rain. The scene describes this new and unexpected phenomenon.

Star Wars: Binary sunset over Tatooine desert 3D Model.
Download Star Wars: Binary sunset over Tatooine desert in various files formats such as Wavefront Object format, Autodesk FBX, DirectX 9.0, Stereo Lithography and HTML5 JSON format.
The model represents a sunset over the Tatooine desert. Tatooine is a fictional planet that appears in the Star Wars saga. The planet is a vast desolate desert and orbits a close binary system consisting of a pair of G-type stars. At the time Tatooine was created by George Lucas, no extrasolar planets had yet been discovered. Today, we know the existence, in our galaxy, of thousands of stars with planets in orbit around them. Some of these are circumbinary planets, i.e. planets that orbit two stars instead of one … like Tatooine. An example is HD 202206, in which a Jupiter-size planet orbits a system consisting of a Sun-like star and a brown dwarf. Currently none of the known circumbinary planets are terrestrial planets located in the habitable zone. However, we cannot exclude the existence of circumbinary planets similar to Tatooine.
