You and I can estimate where objects in space are going to be at a given date. We can do it with pencil and paper and this math! Alternatively, we could spend 25 US dollars on a simulator with beautiful music, and have somebody do it for us with visuals and facts and numbers (and coordinates! How fun is that?).

Other possible uses for Universe Sandbox^2:

• Simulate Velikovsky’s Venus catastrophe
• Place the obelisk from 2001 anywhere in the solar system
• Smash planets into each other
• Find out what would happen if Earth had way too many moons
• Explore the Game of Thrones solar system
• Freak yourself out with how huge the Sun is (optional They Might Be Giants musical accompaniment, because the sandbox comes with pleasant music)
• Play creation deity and make your own universe

Also, you can no longer conclude that I am Not Writing when my Steam account is active. Muahahaha.
