http://en.spaceengine.org/This looks like Universe Sandbox on steroids. I'd really like to get it, but my computer isn't nearly powerful enough. Anyone here tried it out?

Am I imagining this or is that a screenshot of the camera panning to a planet's surface on the website's slideshow? Me gusta. EDIT: Oh yes. Oh yes. Here's a link to my adventures. http://i54.tinypic.com/2jeqzxs.png |

The lensflare got on my nerves a bit, so I made a sleeker, custom one.
Random screenshot ahoy.

This is addictive. Reminds me of Infinity. What I think about it?
I SIMPLY DON'T UNDERSTAND IT!!!
400 BILLION stars. That's 4 times the real number in our galaxy, The Milkyway, and double the number in the largest known galaxies.
SO MANY COMPLEX SHAPED ASTEROIDS!!! In a single solar system. I don't dare to think what number there would be in the whole game.
SO COMPLEX MOONS AND PLANETS!!! And 400 BILLION solar systems. I can't think about it. Help! No no no! I don't DARE to think about how many BYTES that would take. Peta, yotta! It would take YOTTABYTES!!!
Tell me how it's possible, please!

The Space Engine is very cool, but unlike Universe Sandbox, it is not a gravity simulator.

I didn't know LOD 2/3 was buggy, also, I'm not entirely sure how this is a scary app.

I could probably relate to that in an example. Back many years ago when I was in camp and doing a camp out, I had woken up in the middle of the night (no reason at all, nothing to do with a dream) and when I saw the vast night sky, I suddendly felt like I was on the bottom of the planet and would fall off if I moved (and I knew that was physically impossible). It quickly subsided and I saw a few meteors. Anyways, I live in the city and you know, the city gkow and all that. Really though, it was like a visceral or primal feeling like awe or something.
I already knew space was vast and I already liked astronomy, but seeing the night sky like that for the first time is just an overpowering feeling.

I understand what you mean. For me it was more a rush of excitement than a fear, but there is a sort of overwhelming sense of emptiness, and a lot of the planets are without life. Speaking of which, I found a star system that had two terras, both with life. what do I win? |

Well yea, not EVERY single world will have life as we know it, and 'life not as we know it' is a possibility.
