\u201cSpace is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now we\u2019ve made it a bit easier to comprehend the scale of space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scaling Space<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The unit of measurement selection menu now explains what each unit means to help you better understand the vastness of space. Unit names based on the properties of other objects (like Earth mass) have also been updated for clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juno Flyby of Europa<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

On September 29, 2022, the Juno spacecraft performed a flyby of Jupiter\u2019s moon Europa, coming within 352 kilometers and taking the highest-ever resolution close-up image<\/a> of the moon\u2019s surface. Watch this close flyby in our new simulation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More Highlights<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You can now view and monitor the data views for all objects in a simulation at once, also called the Atlas, by going to Open View Panel Settings > 2D Settings > Show All Maps Atlas<\/strong>. The interface for this type of view is a work in progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Object holograms have been updated to look the same, be more visible across different backgrounds, and clearly show their positions in front of or behind other objects<\/p>\n\n\n\n
