Universe Sandbox ²

Universe Sandbox ² is a physics-based space simulator that allows you to create, destroy, and interact on an unimaginable scale.

It merges real-time gravity, climate, collision, and material interactions to reveal the beauty of our universe and the fragility of our planet. Universe Sandbox ² is the long-awaited sequel to the original Universe Sandbox.

Universe Sandbox ² includes the desktop version and a VR mode with support for the HTC Vive & Oculus Rift+Touch. This is a free, automatic update.Simulate GravityN-body simulation at almost any speed using Newtonian mechanics. Real science, real physics, no supercomputer required.
