AstroGrav is a high-precision solar system simulator and gravity simulation software designed for astronomers, researchers, students, and educators. Unlike standard planetarium software that merely charts the sky, AstroGrav calculates the physical gravitational interactions between astronomical bodies. This allows users to observe how orbits evolve over time. Core Simulation Capabilities
N-Body Gravity Calculations: Simulates any environment where gravity is the dominant force, from small rubble piles to colliding globular star clusters.
Advanced Physics Modeling: Factors in Newtonian gravitation, Einstein’s General Relativity, and radiation pressure for highly accurate trajectory tracking.
Dynamic Orbits: Automatically calculates and charts shifting, fluctuating osculating orbits as bodies interact with one another.
Massive Catalog Support: Includes over 100,000 background stars from the Hipparcos catalog, with options to import hundreds of thousands of comets, asteroids, and Earth satellites. Key Software Features
