I made this a while ago but never shared it before. Figured some of you might find this interesting. Based on a presentation that I gave a while ago and then re-adapted into the current format.

Full source code for the simulations and animations is available here: https://github.com/lukechu10/interplanetary-transport-networ...

Simulations were written in Rust and animations were created in Python using the great Manim library!
