What if you could hit a golf ball so hard it went into orbit?
Now you can find out. In Celestial Golf, you will learn the techniques used in real space flight to get your ball through a wild golf course throughout the solar system, and beyond.
Realistic orbital mechanics
Celestial Golf is designed to teach actual orbital mechanics — the laws discovered by Newton which govern the motion of the planets and space craft — in a simplified 2D environment. An intuitive planning interface allows you to visualize the trajectory of the ball and develop a real understanding of the physics of gravity in space, from a quick slice on the Moon, to a years-long journey to Pluto.
Explore the real solar system
Set in our solar system, with planet bodies created from real NASA terrain data, you will gain an appreciation of the many celestial sights out in the cosmos, from afar, and up close, as you bounce the ball over the mountains of Mars, and through the rings of Saturn. You can fully explore the equator of every planet and many major moons and bodies in the solar system.
An epic journey
The eighteen holes of the celestial golf course will take you from the relative comfort of the lunar surface and the Earth, to the surface of the sun, and out into interstellar space. Every hole is designed to introduce a new concept or mechanic, so there is no grinding or repetition, just one short, sweet ride.
