## About This Game
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 includes the desktop version and a VR mode with support for
the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift+Touch, and Windows Mixed Reality.
## Simulate Gravity
N-body simulation at almost any speed using Newtonian mechanics. Real science,
real physics, no supercomputer required.
## Collide Planets & Stars
Epic, mind blowing collisions of massive planetary bodies that leave behind
molten craters.
## Create Your Own Systems
Start with a star, then add a planet. Spruce it up with moons, rings, comets,
or even a black hole.
## Model Earth's Climate
Watch sea ice grow and recede with the seasons because of the tilt of the
Earth: change the tilt and change the seasons. Or move the Earth farther from
the Sun and freeze the entire planet.

## Supernova a Star
Make a star evolve by cranking up its age or mass, then watch a supernova
unfold.
## Explore Historical Events
Ride along with the Juno and New Horizons spacecraft, or view a total solar
eclipse.
## Throw Planets in VR
Just grab and fling.
