About This Educational Edition

The Solar System Simulator Educational Edition is specially designed as a teaching aid for classroom teachers.
The Simulator is arranged on the computer screen to allow the widest view possible. The buttons required for simulation are minimized for each screen to maintain a wide screen view, and to maximize display of the desired motions. Simple operations are performed using controls similar to a projector.
If more detailed settings are required, these can be performed on the setting/operation panel to allow full use of the functions of the Solar System Simulator.

By using the preset scenes provided, the software allows easy simulation of Solar System phenomena utilizing three-dimensional Computer Graphics to enhance classroom teaching and individual learning.
The simulations of various motions of the solar system as seen from ground will appear the same as those provided by general planetarium software.
Additionally, the Solar System Simulator also allows you to move to a viewpoint anywhere in space and thus provide three-dimensional pictures of Solar System phenomena.
