Hi, welcome to the forums!
Yep, you can post your projects here for others to comment.

Check out this thread about how to make your 3-d scatterplot in 3-D rather than 2D:

Congratulations on finishing up. For a little bit of criticism, take a close look at your z-axis on the 3D plot. If you’re using the standard matplotlib.pyplot.scatter() function you will only get 2D plotting as there’s no z paramater so alll those points sit at z=0.0 . You need to be using the scatter method of the 3D axis itself, e.g. fig_3d = plt.figure() ax_3d = plt.subplot(1, 1, 1, projection="3d") orion_3d_scatter = ax_3d.scatter(x, y, z ... See the docs for info- I’d also encourage…

Also, you can add some items to the 3-D grid to get rid of the grid itself:
ax3D.grid(False)
and, possibly:
ax3D.set_facecolor('black')
ax3D.scatter(x,y,z, c='gold', marker = '*', s= 60)
But, it’s all up to you how much you want to customize the 3D scatterplot.
