By utilizing Newton’s Law, the system of differential equations that describe planetary trajectories in our solar system is solved numerically using an adaptive Runge-Kutta method implemented from scratch. The research was presented at the 2021 MAA MathFest Conference and won an outstanding student presentation award.
