Orbit Xplorer
-
Version
1.52
An easy to use educational program at high school and
college physics and astronomy level. Use it to
experiment with, visualize and demonstrate orbits of
celestial bodies and compare answers to school
problems with "reality". Also great for physics and
astronomy projects. Set the parameters of up to 10
stars, planets, satellites etc. and watch their orbits
evolve governed by the law of gravitation. Time,
distance, velocity, acceleration and energy plus
velocity and acceleration vectors may be monitored.
Uses actual pictures of the planets. Create, run, save
and print your own simulation or open one of the 23
pre-made simulations. Each simulation includes
elementary to advanced on-screen activities and
exercises.
