True stories • True scale • Real data

Real space events, second by second.

T-PLUS rebuilds true stories from space history in true-scale 3D, driven by real mission data. You are inside the moment, and the mission clock keeps running.

01 What T-PLUS is

Every distance on screen is real.

T-PLUS is a space channel that retells true events from space history in true-scale 3D. Every distance, orbit and timestamp you see comes from real data, so you feel how big, how far and how fast it really was.

  • True storiesReal missions and real moments. Every script is researched and fact-checked, with sources in each video description.
  • True scaleScenes are built at real sizes and real distances, so the scale you see is the scale it was.
  • Real dataScenes are rendered from public mission data, including NASA JPL Horizons.

The solar system behind this page follows the same rule. Every planet is drawn where it really is right now, computed from NASA JPL orbital elements, at 1 unit = 1,000 km. The readout is the true distance from your viewpoint to the target.

04 Explore

The whole solar system, live.

Every planet, moon and belt sits where it really is right now, and so do Voyager 1 and 2. Fly to any world, measure the distance between any two, watch light cross the gap, and run the clock anywhere from 1800 to 2050.

  • Live positionsComputed in your browser from NASA JPL orbital elements, second by second.
  • Real distancesPick any two worlds to see the gap in kilometres and in light travel time.
  • Time machinePause, rewind or run a year per second and watch the planets move.
