Question Any good free gravity simulators around? - Orbiter-Forum

Anyone know any (good and free) games that simulate gravity between different objects? This idea came to me when FSXHD said on the ChatBox:

Just found an awesome gravity simulator! Great way to see and experiment with gravity, orbits, and orbital bodies. http://www.nowykurier.com/toys/gravity/gravity.html

I had some fun with it, but are there any other, better simulators like this?

Sure :

Yeah, I know, but what I meant wasn't a flight simulator, but a gravity simulator...

Perhaps this is what you're looking for?

Aside of Gravity Simulator?

Maybe ORSA.

But that one is a bit in hibernation.

There is also Gravit, but it doesn't look too scientific:

Also it is only Newtonian.

Artlav was working on a relativistic simulation of black holes and worm holes which was really cool but I don't know if that's really what you're looking for.

Wormholes?

Not really what I was looking for, but I could certainly try it!
