About

Educational games came a long way, from solving simple math equations or spelling quizzes. Universe sandbox allows players to observe effects of gravity on a large scale. Players will be able to change the properties of any objects at any time, which is explained with built-in tutorials and step-by-step activities. All simulations are based on the real scientific data, physics, and units.
Players are invited to experiment and see for themselves, to observe the slightest theoretical changes across 70+ different pre-made simulations, real or fictional. Universe Sandbox is designed and formed not only as an educational tool, where players can use all editing and creation tools to form their own simulations but as a demonstrative showcase. The game supports anaglyphic 3D glasses and 3D DLP televisions.
It invites imagination in the astrophysics, where players can add planets, moons, stars and even black holes to already existing systems, or player created ones.

rad game

Oh the Solar System, ahhhh how beautifully it turns. Everything runs its usual Trajectory. What happens if I, mmmh click on the Sun. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH where is Mars gone, and ... And the Earth, NEINNNN we will all stump ... Bottom left pop the Archievment "Heat Wave" on ... (* 0 *) I have humanity on my Conscience right now!! Oh schei .. On it now all Planets will have to believe (^ D ^)

With Universe Sandbox, you can get the Universe into your Living room. The Tutuorial introduces you to The operation of the individual Options and shows you how to create your own Solar System, blast planets or let Galaxies collide. You have all The Technical Data of the unique Planets, Stars, Moons and much more. Whether you just want to play around or gather scientific knowledge with Universe Sandbox, no Wish will remain unfulfilled. Compares the Planets in their Mass, play Pool in Weightlessness or look at the Starry Images. Everything you can think of here you can implement and try. Can you Create a stable Solar System? I think it's a very successful Simulation. Very versatile and easy to use

Infinite Expanses. Our Universe is full of Mysteries and Mysteries. One can hardly imagine what miracles had remained hidden from us until now. But that's over. 2012. Humanity conquers Mars and from there conquers the Rest of the Galaxy. It is only a Matter of Time before we no longer know our Limits. But what happens then? When Man sits the same with God? Can we embarn on such a huge Responsibility? Can man ignore all the Basics of Ethics and become a God? When did the Individual go too far? How Much is needed to completely spoil man? A wise Man once told me, "Only when the last Leaf falls down from the Cherry Blossom Tree does the Wind Realize what he has done." Now, just like the Wind, I realize far too late what the old Man wanted to tell me ...

A Simulation where you can simulate a Solar System or a Galaxle is a great Idea. Visually, the Universe Sandbox also comes across wonderfully. But physics is engrossing, which is why it is so difficult until it is impossible to construct its own Solar System, Double Star system or even Multiple Star system. This starts with the two Celestial Bodies, sitting down, not starting to orbit, but flying directly at each other and colliding with each other. The Idea of missing a rock Ring a La Saturn or Juptiter to a small Planet like Earth is funny, but would never work in Reality. The Chunks would quickly lose the Earth, due to lack of appropriate Gravity. Only smaller, lighter Particles would hold in orbit, just like the Space debris orbiting The Earth, which is not at All Removable as a Ring. As auspicious as ' Universe Sandbox ' was for me at the Beginning, so quickly the so-called Simulation has become boring and uninteresting for me.
