Build your own solar systems, or even galaxies, with all the orbital mechanics handled for you.

I haven't downloaded it but the screenshots look very interesting.

Hmm! Its started me thinking about 3D Aurora at the system level. I wonder how hard that would be to program. I don't think VB would be able to handle it though.

VB could handle it but the turn processing would be soooo sloooow.
