Absolute Sol

Absolute Sol is a living sandbox of our Solar System. You fly it, inspect it, and then start changing it.

Move Earth. Drop a moon inside a Roche limit. Hit a world with a probe or an asteroid. Time is yours — pause it, speed it up, or bake years ahead and watch climates, orbits, and surfaces respond.

This is a simulation first. The pictures should look good, but the point is that the system behaves like a system: heat, gravity, breakup, and the things you can read off a planet when you actually look.

What you can do now

Fly the Solar System — the Sun, the planets, major moons, rings, and belts, from a wide overview down to a single world. Default scale keeps inner worlds readable from the Sun; true physical scale is one toggle away.

Edit and create — change orbits, spin, mass, air, and water, or spawn new bodies and see what they do to everything else.

Watch Earth react — oceans, ice, atmosphere, weather, and surface damage as you move it, heat it, freeze it, or hit it.

Roche limits — push a moon or small body too close and watch it stretch and come apart into grit and debris.

Impacts — probes, asteroids, and collisions, with scars, debris, and secondary hits.

Science overlays — atmosphere layers, magnetosphere, ring profiles, and stellar heatmaps, with plain-language (i) tips on every inspector number. Built so a curious kid and a tired adult can both follow along.

Scenarios — guided starts: free play at today’s date, Apollo 11, a true-size lineup, a Goldilocks parade at 1 AU, a tide-locked Earth, or a look-only grand tour of the family.

Bake Studio — run the clock forward (orbits, belts, Roche drama, or climate) then play the result back. Compute once; watch at a human pace. A Research fidelity is there for classrooms that want denser steps.

Runs on more than a beast PC — Low / Medium / High / Ultra, optional surface shadows, and belt-density toggles (main belt, Trojans, Kuiper, and the rest) so a laptop can still fly the system.

Sandbox extras — a few toys for testing the system at scale, including a Superlaser Platform (our own constructed, moon-scale body).

What this is — and isn’t

Absolute Sol is Early Access. The Solar System is playable, the sandbox works, and development is daily. Visuals, effects, and tools will keep getting better. Scientific behavior stays the priority.

Buy it for what you can do today: sit in the system, break a rule, and see what happens.
