3D Spaceship Simulator/Trainer for 3D thinking. Planet Explorer is a 3D spaceship simulator and trainer for thinking in 3D. It works in two modes: static and dynamic. In dynamic mode the user circulates one of our nine planets on a Kepler ellipse, each planet having a different stationary position. This app shows 3D geometry in action. The simulator interface allows to change all orbit parameter and displays continuously the present position and velocity of the spaceship. In static mode the program uses two other interfaces: a graphics display and an exercise database including numerous self-study topics and exercises. Both interfaces offer an easy, step-by-step, game-like learning framework, where a user is guided from simple to more complex topics, which incorporate fun, game, and self-discovery features. Planet Explorer automatically displays the number of exercises you have done and tried to do, the number of correct answers, as well as your grade, and enables you to create your own topics, exercises, and images as wanted.
