Solar System Scope

Solar System Scope is a super cool interactive tool that lets you explore space in 3D. Whether you're into astronomy or just curious about what's out there, this simulation gives you a front-row seat to the planets, moons, and stars — all from your screen. It’s part science, part visual wonder, and addictive once you dive in.

How to Play

You can click, drag, zoom, and rotate your view to explore the solar system however you like. Want to zoom in on Saturn’s rings or check out where Earth is in real time? Just click it. The controls are simple, so you’ll get the hang of it fast — no science degree required.

What Makes It Awesome

• The planets and moons look amazing and move realistically

• It uses real astronomical data, so what you're seeing is accurate

• Day and night cycles, orbits, and even constellations are visible.

Tips to Get the Most Out of It

Begin by exploring one planet or moon at a time. Activate orbits or constellation guides to better grasp the interconnectedness of everything. The search feature is also quite useful if you're trying to find a specific item, like Mars or the International Space Station.
