Creating the Solar System in OpenGL

# Introduction

In this project, we will create a solar system simulation using OpenGL. The simulation will include the sun, planets, and their movements and rotations. We will use GLUT (OpenGL Utility Toolkit) to handle window and input functions, and OpenGL for rendering.

By completing this project, you will learn:

- Basic concepts of graphics programming using OpenGL
- How to create 3D models and render them in a simulated environment
- How to handle user input and update the simulation accordingly
- How to implement a basic lighting system to enhance the visual quality of the simulation
- How to organize code using object-oriented programming principles

This project assumes a basic understanding of C++ programming and some familiarity with graphics programming concepts. It will provide a hands-on experience in building a simple graphics application using OpenGL.
