Overview

Universe Sandbox is a physics-based space simulator. It merges gravity, climate, collision, and material interactions to reveal the beauty of our universe and the fragility of our planet.

Create, destroy, and interact on a scale you’ve never before imagined. Explore Universe Sandbox in VR Walk and fly around your simulations, melt planets with a giant laser, then grab and hurl them out of the solar system with a flick of the wrist. Universe Sandbox ² includes the desktop version and a VR mode with support for HTC Vive & Oculus Rift+Touch.

Simulate Gravity

N-body simulation at almost any speed using Newtonian mechanics. Real science, real physics, no supercomputer required.

Collide Planets & Stars

Epic, mind blowing collisions of massive planetary bodies.

Model Earth’s Climate

Watch sea ice grow and recede with the seasons because of the tilt of the Earth: change the tilt and change the seasons. Or move the Earth farther from the Sun and freeze the entire planet.

Terraform Planets

Add carbon dioxide to a planet’s atmosphere to heat it up. Then add water…

Deform Surfaces

Impact planets with asteroids and comets and leave behind massive, molten craters.

Supernova a Star

Make a star evolve by cranking up its age or mass, then watch a supernova unfold.

And more…
