This game allows you to simulate hundreds of different scenarios and observe them visually.
What would happen to the Earth if the Moon were removed? What if the Sun goes out? How would our planet behave if you changed its orbit? What if you push the asteroid Apophis into the Earth? This approach demonstrates how balanced our solar system is. This is an excellent educational tool where the player can change almost any parameter of the solar system. Universe Sandbox 2 for Mac is a solar system sandbox simulator.
