Orbital thinking

Elliptical paths and soft satellites around a shared center.

Prompt MotionCC0 1.0 Universal
Create a self-contained SVG motion graphic in a single HTML file.

ART DIRECTION
Use a deep navy background (#161d2c). Compose five thin elliptical orbits centered on the artboard, each rotated by 30 degrees. Move seven peach, lime, and periwinkle satellites on elliptical paths. Keep a pale blue central sphere stationary. Add the caption EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED. Render flat vector geometry, without fake 3D claims.

TECHNICAL RULES
- Use a 960 × 600 viewBox (8:5). Scale responsively without cropping.
- The loop lasts exactly 6 seconds. Use deterministic, time-based drawing with requestAnimationFrame; do not accumulate frame deltas.
- Keep all shapes and text inside the safe area. Use system sans-serif fonts and no external assets, libraries, or network requests.
- Use a static representative frame when prefers-reduced-motion is enabled, and include a visible play/pause control.
- Pause when the document is hidden.
- Return the complete HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with no omitted sections.

DELIVERY
Make the text, colors, and example data easy to edit. Explain which values to change. The supplied reference is an original implementation, not proof that any model reproduces this prompt exactly.
