ahh those crazy astrophysics students at my Alma matter (sp?)
get the satellite into perfect orbit

click in space to start a satellite, you can try pushing it to get better trajectory.

i also clicked a tone of times at once, pretty cool. gravity game.  :crazy2:

I just got as many as I could to circle the moon a few times then sling over to earth. Fun for a bout four minutes. Then I became dispondant. Damn short attention span....

in case anybody wants to know the secret of how to do this properly...you circle the earthy in a clockwise motion (not counterclockwise) and keep on clicking at a speed fast enough so they don't fall into the earth and slower than making them escape into space.  i'm so cool that i have like 30 in orbit and they've been tehre for at least half an hour.

now i should really get back to studying for finals :doh:

neat, but it got boring =(

control of mouse + understanding of the physics makes it a one trick pony.


first time i've ever used the expression. hm.

understanding physics need not be involved if a person experiments w/ this for a little while. my little sister could do this.

correct, but if you know how the orbits and such work, most of the work is done.
