When the Moon hit the Earth in Universe Sandbox Legacy, a little white splotch appeared on Earth's surface, and that was about it. Learn more about climate in Universe Sandbox It is a relatively simple model, but it shows the changing seasons and demonstrates some of the causes and effects of climate change.
The climate model responds to incoming star-light, changes in orbits, and atmospheric factors like the amount of CO₂. But when it came to simulating other elements of astronomy and physics, like temperature, planetary collisions, or stellar evolution, it fell a little short.įortunately, Universe Sandbox simulates all of that and a lot more, providing a much broader palette for interaction and exploration.Ĭlimate modeling on Earth in Universe Sandbox.Ĭompletely new to Universe Sandbox are climate models for Earth and Mars, and temperature simulation for all other bodies.
Universe Sandbox Legacy was good at simulating gravity.
