Free program that renders 3d imaginary star system with planets, moons, and retrograde orbits?
I’m working on a project with some friends for a custom campaign setting for a game and some stories we plan on writing, but we aren’t sure if the orbital mechanics we came up with would work. We’re looking for a program that will render the system we have in mind so that we can study the orbital patterns, day/night system, and seasons of a habitable moon.
Any help would be appreciated.

This program will let you see the rotations of all the planets, orbits. It even lets you see every star and solar system we’ve ever discovered.
