The Wolfram Demonstrations Project contains thousands of free interactive visualizations, with new entries added daily.

Trajectories for the Kepler two-body problem are plotted on a constant-energy surface in reduced phase space. The variables are the coordinates x, y and the velocity components v_x, v_y. The four initial values are selected by sliders. This Demonstratio...
