SpaceEngine

Explore the vastness of space and observe the planets around you in the world's first science-based photorealistic interactive 3D planetarium. SpaceEngine is a universe simulation that allows users to explore the entire universe in three dimensions using procedural generation for uncharted areas.

Developed by Cosmographic Software, SpaceEngine started as a free space simulation program but has now become a 1:1 scale science-based Universe simulator that features countless galaxies, nebulae, stars, planets, and celestial phenomena - that are all shown at their full real-world scale and are all available for exploration. The game even allows the player to pilot a starship and land on any planet.
