What is a Solar System object in Universe Sandbox?

A Solar System Object in Universe Sandbox is a simulated object representing an actual asteroid, comet, Kuiper Belt object, dwarf planet, or other natural body orbiting the Sun that is not a planet or moon. Larger Solar System objects, such as dwarf planets, are simulated as Planetary Bodies in...

Can you simulate the Solar System in a sandbox game?

Yes, you can simulate the Solar System from Sol to Earth in the Universe Sandbox game. However, much is cut, simplified, or unable to be simulated in the game.

How do you build a planet in Universe Sandbox?

Planets can be constructed with any (or all) of the materials available in Universe Sandbox using the Planetscaping tool, Material tool, or an object’s Composition tab. The four materials with the most mass are automatically simulated across an object’s surface, similar to how water is simulated now.

How do I create a world in Universe Sandbox?

Turn Earth into Mars or mix-and-match maps to create your own worlds. Blend, shift, and flip any two of the elevation maps in Universe Sandbox to create your own custom surface that governs water flow, temperature simulation, and more.

How does Universe Sandbox simulate a multi-layer atmosphere?

But some atmospheres, like Venus', are so thick that they have multiple opaque layers. Universe Sandbox simulates the atmospheric heating of these multi-layer atmospheresusing the Number of Atmosphere Layers and using the Infrared Emissivity to represent the transparency of the top, non-opaque layer.

How do I use Universe Sandbox?

There's a web interface that's very powerful, but also a bit intimidating to use at first. Essentially, for using the data in Universe Sandbox, you need to set the ephemeris type to Elements, change the Target body to whatever you're trying to simulate, then set the Center to whatever will be the orbital parent in Universe Sandbox.
