Solar System Model

This is a Matlab solar system model using initial positions and velocities of the planets in respect to the sun. All planets are included with the addition of the Moon and Pluto. The program uses ODE45 to solve the n-body problem for each of the masses. Circular orbits are incurred since average distance and velocity relative to the sun were used. Orbital inclination was included for all planets and Pluto.
