Equation first
The model definition comes before presentation. Orbits, fields, timing, disks, and engineering assemblies are generated from equations and explicit parameters, not traced from a screenshot or thumbnail.
Mathematical verification
Exorbit Space separates mathematical models, catalog parameters, visual presentation, and known simplifications. A WebGL object is accepted only when its geometry or animation can be reproduced from equations, units, or explicit scene transforms.
Verification Standard
These rules apply to all generated site models, including solar-system orbits, moon systems, black holes, spacecraft, observatories, field diagrams, scale maps, and engineering models.

Where a page shows AU, km, light-years, seconds, periods, masses, radii, or angular values, the rendered value must be connected to a unit conversion or a documented display scale.
If the browser view compresses distances, enlarges radii, uses two-body dynamics, or uses schematic geometry, the page must say so. A simplified model is acceptable only when its simplification is explicit.
Core Model Families
Solar-system and moon-system positions are calculated from conic sections and Kepler propagation. This proves the paths are generated from orbital elements rather than image placement.
Space Dynamics and gravity tools classify trajectories from conserved quantities. Orbit type follows the sign of energy and the angular-momentum vector.
Black-hole silhouettes are scaled from the Schwarzschild relation. Accretion disks use radial thin-disk temperature profiles and Keplerian differential rotation.
Gravity and field-lab vectors are sampled from vector equations. The arrows and surfaces must agree by gradient or inverse-square law.
Big Bang and large-scale astronomy pages use scale-factor, redshift, temperature, and distance conversions as the model source.
Rockets, rovers, landers, telescopes, and stations are built from reproducible scene-graph transforms, dimensional hierarchy, symmetry, and subsystem layout.
What This Does Not Claim
Some scenes use lightweight two-body propagation or anchored vectors instead of bundled SPICE/Horizons integration. Pages state that limitation where it matters.
Black-hole pages use event-horizon scale, photon-ring markers, Keplerian flow, and thin-disk emissivity. They are not full general-relativistic radiative-transfer solvers.
Engineering models are educational geometry with correct subsystem logic and transform consistency. They are not certified mechanical drawings or finite-element models.
Images and reference visuals may inform color or composition, but mathematical claims must come from equations, units, data fields, or explicit transformations.
