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.
A Mars gravity simulator could be built on the Moon to prepare for Mars missions. The surface gravity of Mars is somewhat more than twice that of the Moon. It has been proposed to build a large low-pressure bubble, and within it up to twenty higher-pressure rotating tori, all within a cave or lava tube. An analogous system could be built on ...
According to the IAU's explicit count, there are eight planets in the Solar System; four terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) and four giant planets, which can be divided further into two gas giants (Jupiter and Saturn) and two ice giants (Uranus and Neptune). When excluding the Sun, the four giant planets account for more than ...

Orbit modeling is the process of creating mathematical models to simulate motion of a massive body as it moves in orbit around another massive body due to gravity.Other forces such as gravitational attraction from tertiary bodies, air resistance, solar pressure, or thrust from a propulsion system are typically modeled as secondary effects.
An N-body simulation of the cosmological formation of a cluster of galaxies in an expanding universe. In physics and astronomy, an N-body simulation is a simulation of a dynamical system of particles, usually under the influence of physical forces, such as gravity (see n-body problem for other applications).
EVA in terrestrial gravity, but 'extraterrestrial' surface. Confinement Confinement up to a year (366 days) in the habitat. Habitat and LSS Simulation in remote location and stress and environmental monitoring. CHILL-ICE, Iceland: 64.7869, -20.7144 Volcanic analogue site to test human robotic (co)operation inside a lava tube.
The surface gravity, g, of an astronomical object is the gravitational acceleration experienced at its surface at the equator, including the effects of rotation. The surface gravity may be thought of as the acceleration due to gravity experienced by a hypothetical test particle which is very close to the object's surface and which, in order not to disturb the system, has negligible mass.
