Are you asking how to make the planet and moon orbit or something else?
I did a fully featured solar system once for a game, with moons and planets, all with (semi) accurate topological data.
mail me some more specific questions if you like.

i think you mean that you wnat it to move without pressing a key??
you need to remove the for loop from the display function (if you are using one). make any variables global not local in the display function.
then put glIdleFunc(Display);
in the main function. this should work.
if not then you will have to show a copy of you code.

I think you mean glutIdleFunc(display);
use this, if you use GLUT. if you are coding direct with mfc, you have to overload the OnIdle() func with a display(); call.
