A binary star system
A simulation of a binary star system with planets around both stars.

Janus and Epimetheus
Janus and Epimetheus travel around Saturn in a horseshoe orbit.

Tethys
Saturn's moons Tethys, Telesto & Calypso are locked into a 1:1:1 resonance with each other. Watch as Telesto & Calypso are held captive in Tethys' Lagrange 4 & 5 points.

Dione
Saturn's moons Dione and Helene are locked into a 1:1 resonance with each other. Watch as Helene orbits Dione's Lagrange 4 point.

The Galilean Moons
Watch as the three innermost Galilean moons of Jupiter orbit in resonance with each other.

NEO Toutatis
Near-Earth-asteroid, Toutatis makes a close pass to planet Earth on September 29, 2004.

Apophis
The odds were once considered as high as 1 in 37 that asteroid Apophis, also known as 2004 MN4 would impact Earth on April 13, 2029. Although it is now known that the asteroid will miss the Earth, it will come impressively close. Watch as asteroid 2004 MN4 passes through the Earth / Moon system, barely missing both the Earth and the Moon. Let the simulation run a few more minutes and watch as Apophis returns to Earth's region in 2036.

Cruithne, Earth's 2nd Moon
Watch as Earth's companion asteroid traces kidney bean shaped orbits around the Sun.

Asteroid 2002 AA29
Earth's gravity causes Asteroid 2002 AA29 to orbit the Sun in a horseshoe orbit. At times, this asteroid enters a quasi-orbit around the Earth.

The Origin of Sedna's Orbit
How did Sedna end up in its highly eccentric orbit? Astronomers Alessandro Morbidelli and Harold F. Levison have a theory. Sedna may have once orbited a brown dwarf. A close encounter with the Sun caused Sedna to be stripped from the brown dwarf and enter a solar orbit. This simulation reproduces their experiment.

Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9
In 1994, Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 slammed into Jupiter. In this simulation you can watch the comet as it orbits Jupiter. A close pass to Jupiter in July 1992 causes the comet to break into pieces. These cometary fragments strike Jupiter in June 1994.
