Discover...
★ the Sun , the bright shining star in the center of our Solar System
★ Mercury , the fastest planet orbiting around our Sun
★ Venus , its greenhouse effect produces a surface temperature that would melt lead
★ Earth , the blue oasis and only place filled with life
★ Mars , inspiration for many SciFi films and books
★ Jupiter , the giant, guardian and protector in our neighborhood
★ Saturn , with rings of unique beauty and elegance
★ Uranus , which rolls over its orbit like a bowling ball
★ Neptune , the outermost recognized planet
★ Pluto , one of a new category of dwarf planets
But these are not all objects of this simulator, because so far you do not know Orcus , Varuna , Ceres , Pallas , Haumea and all the other asteroids and dwarf planets. Not to mention Sedna whose orbit is still speculative to science.
Nearly 200 objects are included, but not as static images, rather as living objects in a living universe. Enjoy the Solar System in realtime, in the future or past.
Bring the cosmos to life with an innovative timeslider . Let time take its course, how fast depends on the scale factor of the timeslider. A wipe with your finger and the simulator comes to life.
For a more exiting viewing experience various camera modes are available. Attach the camera to a planet or place it at a fixed location in space and let the celestial bodies pass by, in portrait or landscape mode, whatever you prefer.
And that's still not all. A built in encyclopedia gives you useful information about each object of the simulation, extracted from Wikipedia.
Don't miss this unique viewing experience, there is no easier way to explore the wonderful world beyond our planet.
And if you ever feel "Lost in Space", don't worry, because it's just a simulation.
