Asteroid Apophis passing near Earth in 2029.Pioneer & Voyager encounters with Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, & Neptune.The 100 largest bodies in our Solar System.Rho Cancri Solar System (55 Cancri) - a star with 5 known planets.
Recently discovered comet with retrograde orbit - 2008 KV42. Shoemaker Levy 9 collision with Jupiter. Includes the 8 planets of our solar system, 5 minor planets, 160+ moons, and hundreds of asteroids. Universe Sandbox includes 70+ systems, both real and fictional. There's an introductory tutorial and step-by-step activities built into the program. Buy the premium version for $9.95 USD to unlock all the features. Universe Sandbox is free to use forever for viewing and exploring simulations. Creating realistic imagery and movies of our universe. Having fun with creation and destruction on an epic scale. Exploring how gravity works, one of the four fundamental forces of our universe. Learning about the universe in which we live (without realizing that you're learning). View a comparison chart | Free vs Premium What is Universe Sandbox for? The premium version lets you create your own simulations, add new bodies (like planets and stars), and change all the various simulation properties. The free version of Universe Sandbox lets you explore and discover any of the included simulations for as long as you want. What's the difference between the free and premium versions? Purchase the Early Access version and read more.Ĭheck out the video preview, user videos, or view screenshots of the program in action. Universe Sandbox ² is a complete rewrite of the original and has been in development since fall 2011. Ride along with the Juno and New Horizons spacecraft, or view a total solar eclipse.At its core, Universe Sandbox is a gravity simulator (that very intentionally happens to be fun and easy to use).Ĭheck out the "what is it?" page for more info. Make a star evolve by cranking up its age or mass, then watch a supernova unfold. 
Or move the Earth farther from the Sun and freeze the entire planet. Watch sea ice grow and recede with the seasons because of the tilt of the Earth: change the tilt and change the seasons. Spruce it up with moons, rings, comets, or even a black hole. Real science, real physics, no supercomputer required.Įpic, mind blowing collisions of massive planetary bodies that leave behind molten craters. N-body simulation at almost any speed using Newtonian mechanics.
