AstroGrav is a solar system simulator that offers you the possibility to run different scenarios in order to understand how different astronomical objects interact with each other. The environment emulates the solar system with precision, which leads to accurate results for your simulations.

To help you get started, AstroGrav comes with a collection of sample simulations covering different subjects: abstract systems, the exoplanet systems, the solar system, or space missions. Within the AstroGrav’s main window, you will be able to preview the simulations, and analyze the data.

Of course, you will also be able to create your own simulations by defining new objects in the Table window: after editing the appropriate parameters, simply open a New View window in order to run the simulation and visualize the effects.

The application comes with extensive details about the solar system, including more than 100.000 background stars. At the same time, it provides support for different coordinate grids and allows you to visualize the objects from any Earth location, in planetarium view mode.

However, AstroGrav is also able to calculate the trajectories, orbits, or gravitational interactions of various user defined objects. You have the option to edit over 30 different parameters and take simulations steps that vary from thousands of years to a single second. As a result, you can easily run your own tests and monitor how the solar system evolves in time.

AstroGrav offers you the possibility to visualize the celestial bodies in planetarium style, while running various simulations involving user defined objects.

Since the app is able to calculate both the trajectories and interactions, you will be able to see how the solar system evolves in time, taking into consideration your modifications.
