Features Space Sim VR (Paid)

Space Sim VR was produced solely by Aaron Knobloch, a software engineering student in Atlanta, GA.
It was made with one goal in mind: to provide a free roaming, open-world experience for our solar system, and to replicate space and its planets as accurately as possible.
Here are some quick facts about the space simulator:• System defaults to real-time speed.• Planet maps taken from NASA data.• Planet rotation/orbit are accurate to the 3rd significant figure.• Planet scales/distances are accurate to the 3rd significant figure.Planets/Bodies included:• Mercury• Venus (Dynamic Atmosphere)• Earth (Dynamic Atmosphere)• Moon• Mars• Jupiter• Io• Europa• Saturn (Asteroid Rings)• Uranus• NeptuneIf there are any requests for moons, ring structures or additional bodies, please feel free to ask!
I plan on adding the asteroid belt next.
Additionally, Pluto is not included for a couple reasons.
The first being that it is no longer recognized as a full-fledged planet.
The second being that the scale of the simulation is based on the position of Neptune, and adding another body further than Neptune would produce unpredictable floating-point errors.
This is a restriction of the Unity engine.

Thanks :)
