Educational orbit and gravitation simulator for high school and college physics

Orbit Xplorer Overview

Orbit Xplorer 2.2 was downloaded & scanned by our team, against different types of malwares (like viruses, spyware, trojans, backdoors and others) and found CLEAN.

Educational orbit and gravitation simulator for high school, college and beginning university physics and astronomy. Input mass, radius, coordinates and velocity components of 2 to 10 bodies manually or by dragging and dropping predefined bodies. Then watch how the orbits evolve under the mutual gravitaional attractions. Save and print the simulation.

Great for 'lab exercises' in gravitational physics or for verifying numerical answers to textbook problems. Includes 30 introductory to advanced premade simulations with activities page in html-format. Simulations include elliptical satellite orbits, Kepler's laws, double star, geocentric and heliocentric world view, Lagrange points, gravity assist, Hohmann orbit, extrasolar planet, inner solar system. Uses actual pictures of planets.

Plot orbits in a plane or in 3D. View time, distances, speeds, accelerations, ...

Uses actual pictures of planets.

Plot orbits in a plane or in 3D. View time, distances, speeds, accelerations, energies and acceleration vectors as they change. Adjust the simulation speed to fit your computer. Zoom and change parameters during the simulation. Run up to four simultaneous simulations.

Tutorial and context-sensitive help included.

Why to stay up-to-date?

Most of the time having the latest version of a software is a good thing. Usually software updates add new features, which makes the software more usefull. Also with every update a software becomes more secure and more stable by fixing bugs & vulnerabilities from previous versions.

We offer you 3 options in order to stay up-to-date with your software list:

1. Using Update Notifier (recommended) - AUTOMATIC PROCESS
The Update Notifier is a FREE small utility that scans your computer for installed software and displays a list of updates.

2. Register on the website and use the Watch List Option - MANUAL PROCESS
Signup on the website for free and use Watch List option (a collection of software, made by you, where you can see the current version or download it.

3. By Email - SEMI-AUTOMATIC PROCESS
Complete the following form and we'll send you an email, every time a new version of Orbit Xplorer is launched.

How can you help?

Because this is a free service and we intent to keep it free, we need your input. You can:

1. Post a link to this software on your website
2. Report a problem/bug or feature requests, using the contact form

3. Notify us is a new version of Orbit Xplorer is released and we don't have it yet on the website.
