These browser labs reproduce the scientific path of the executed notebooks without running arbitrary Python. Predict first, move one control, then explain the difference.
Why does a planet keep missing its star?
Compare Euler and velocity Verlet, vary launch speed, and expose numerical error through energy drift.
How does a spectrum reveal composition?
Fit absorption features, inspect residuals, and see how blending makes an inference unstable.
Can a one-percent dip reveal an unseen world?
Generate a light curve, search periods in a worker, fold the data, and infer a planet-to-star radius ratio.
