Universe Sandbox 2 is a full rewrite of the original Universe Sandbox for Windows, Mac, and Linux. In development since late 2011, we are working hard to make the new version more amazing than the original in every way. We can’t wait to release it to everyone, but won’t release it until it’s ready.
The new Universe Sandbox is a way of learning about our amazing universe and fragile planet via a powerful gravity simulator and an expanding realm of realistic and interconnected astronomy and climate physics systems.
Here is a collection of links to forum posts about the new version currently in development.

Yes… this is something we’re been working on in the background for the last year. It may not be implemented at the initial public release, but it is of interest to us.

I am curious as to when this version will be out and will it be available for schools like the current version? We have Mac support in our district. We have the windows side but tech services is not very helpful with installing software on the windows side.

It is hard to say… we have yet to decide on pricing for either retail or educational versions of Universe Sandbox 2. We are, however, implementing many new lessons and tutorials that will make it an even better educational tool than the original. Thanks for your interest.

If I already have Universe Sandbox 2, will I have to buy 3 or will I just have to upgrade?
about 10 years ago
The new version currently in development is actually Universe Sandbox 2, not 3. You can read more about this on our FAQ: http://universesandbox.com/faq/#us2.
Also from our FAQ:
If I bought Universe Sandbox will I receive Universe Sandbox 2 for free?
Unfortunately, no. Universe Sandbox 2 is not just an upgrade, it’s a completely new product. You can read more about why in this post: http://steamcommunity.com/app/72200/discussions/0/648814842007314908/.
