I'd like a way to model a planet with a axis tilt of 102 degrees. If someone knows of some software, or a website or even can break down the information I'd appreciate it.
There's no good place to ask this question so I'll have to ask it here.
I'm playing around with unique ideas for constructing strange virtual worlds.
One is having a planet's axis rotating pretty close to 90 degrees. (Think Uranus).
Even assuming everything else is the same. (Same time to rotate for a day, same time to go around the sun, still within a star's habitable zone etc)
How would you properly map what both the terrain and seasonal environment would be like?
I know "generally" what it would be like; equator a little colder than the poles. Rotating temperate areas that would be see the sun for half a year (or be without sun for half a year)
But I'd like a better way to model it. So if you know of any way to provide better detail, I'd appreciate it.
As an aside. I am constantly amazed by how even a small change to one celestial detail we take for granted every day drastically changes how a world develops.
Thanks!
