Project: Visualizing the Orion Constellation

Hello Everyone, I just finished the Orion Constellation project, would love to hear your feedback.

# Imports
%matplotlib notebook
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

# Orion Data
x = [-0.41, 0.57, 0.07, 0.00, -0.29, -0.32,-0.50,-0.23, -0.23]
y = [4.12, 7.71, 2.36, 9.10, 13.35, 8.13, 7.19, 13.25,13.43]
z = [2.06, 0.84, 1.56, 2.07, 2.36, 1.72, 0.66, 1.25,1.38]

# 2D Plotting
fig = plt.figure()
ax1 = fig.add_subplot(1,1,1)
plt.scatter(x, y, color = ‘#48C9B0’, marker = ‘*’)
plt.title(‘Orion constellation in 2D’)
plt.xlabel(‘X coordinate of the star’)
plt.ylabel(‘Y coordinate of the star’)
plt.show()

# 3D Plotting
fig_3d = plt.figure()
ax2 = fig_3d.add_subplot(1,1,1, projection = ‘3d’)
constellation3d = ax2.scatter(x, y, z, s = 50, color = ‘#48C9B0’, marker = ‘*’)
plt.title(‘Orion constellation in 3D’)
plt.show()
