summary

Shows a working Java implementation that uses NASA Space Technology 5 antennas as a proof point: an evolutionary algorithm actually designed an antenna that flew in space. Implements Traveling Salesman with plain Java, uses NASA WorldWind for distances, an Angular/Bootstrap front end for live demos, and a cut-and-crossfill recombination plus swap mutation and replace-worst survivor selection. Population sizes, mutation rate and generation limits are tunable; demos converge in minutes and code is available for cloning.
