I recently made a C++ program to simulate 3-body problems, which were able to recreate the famous figure-eight orbit. It used numerical approximation to solve Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method, also known as RK4. The program can handle N-body simulations too if you let it run long enough.

In the past week, I revisited my previous projects to brainstorm ideas for upgrading them. The first project that came to mind was Galaxy Morphology Classification using ConvNeXtTiny. I challenged myself by limiting the resources available to the free-tier Kaggle Notebook to avoid spending too much time or resources. Additionally, I wanted to make the most out of the dataset, so I decided to use the same Galaxy10 DECals dataset.
