The player assumes the role of a spacecraft pilot whose mission is to travel between the various bodies of the Solar System.The game opens with a mix of electric guitar music and digitized speech during which the player is shown the text of a transmission sent from the headquarters of a body known as "P.L.A.N.E.T.":
Universe Sandbox is a series of simulation video games.In Universe Sandbox, users can see the effects of gravity on objects in the universe and run scale simulations of the Solar System, various galaxies or other simulations, while at the same time interacting and maintaining control over gravity, time, and other objects in the universe, such as moons, planets, asteroids, comets, and black holes.

Typical DSO survey in Celestia. Celestia versions 1.6.3 and under display the Hipparcos Catalogue (HIP) of 118,322 stars and a compiled catalogue of galaxies, while version 1.7.0 includes stars from the Tycho-2 Catalogue alongside the Hipparcos stars, with some data from Gaia, increasing the star count to over 2 million.

Orbiter was developed as a simulator, [14] with accurately modeled planetary motion, gravitation effects (including non-spherical gravity), free space, atmospheric flight and orbital decay. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] The position of the planets in the solar system is calculated by the VSOP87 solution, while the Earth-Moon system is simulated by the ELP2000 ...
