Creator of Worlds!

Holy SHIT, y'all! Why did I not know about Universe Sandbox sooner? This program is AWESOME. I've been re-tooling the setting of Doctors! In! SPACE! as part of my big rewrite,* and while I've been mathing the HELL out of it and been doing pretty well, it's still nice to have an outside confirmation--and a visual one, at that. Plus, it's fun to send the solar system bodies careening around by sticking a massive star in there somewhere.

Still learning the program myself, but so far I've made sure the crazy skies for three different worlds are possible, and have managed to crash Jupiter into the sun several times. If you're at all into space stuff, guys, seriously, check this shit out. It's awesome.

Dear Astronomers: Do those poor bastards among you who study Trojan moons spend your ENTIRE LIVES with ZZ Top's "La Grange" banging around in your head?! It's been TWO DAYS. SOMEBODY HELP ME.


*Well, they're still gonna be in space, but a different part of it. Space is pretty big, after all.
