Fireballs Through Time

Forked from Fireballs round 2

The goal of this piece was to look at the NASA data set cneos fireballs, which shows objects that have hit the earth and their location of impact, impact energy, date of impact, and several other pieces of data.

https://cneos.jpl.nasa.gov/fireballs/

The data set was originally visualized by geographic location, but I thought it would be interesting to visualize the data set by impact energy to see if there were any correlations based on date and location.

In later iterations, I would like to include the whole data set, as well as make the parent impact nodes scale up to represent their magnitude. I would like to and hover statements that allow the user to see the fireball data for a single node rather than all of them at once. This would include finding a better typographical treatment for each node’s data is displayed.

After doing the second iteration, I want to use the new insights I found to refine this piece.

A bare minimum HTML page.
