LAMELLAE

One of the most recognizable features of Widmanstätten patterns is the way lamellae are arranged inside the meteorite.

Since lamellae are arranged in structures similar to an octahedron, there are three possible ways they appear in slices: two perpendicular sets of bands three sets of bands at 60 angles between each other four sets of bands at different angles

SURFACE REFLECTIONS

Cosmicodes simulates various kinds of metallic and abstract materials and their reflections. You can move the light source with your mouse when in live mode.
