B Looking for Simulations of Exoplanets

AI Thread Summary
There are several online simulations available for exploring exoplanets and radial velocity changes. Users can experiment with parameters like stellar luminosity, although it's noted that luminosity does not affect orbits. Recommended resources include a solar system simulator and a comprehensive list of astronomical software from the University of Puerto Rico. Additional links provide access to various planetary system simulations and educational tools related to the Goldilocks zone. These resources can help users better understand the dynamics of exoplanets and their interactions with stars.

Is there any good simulation to test out radial velocity and/or maybe mess around with exoplanets? If there is please let me know!

I want to try out this simulation where I change the luminosity of a star and see how the accuracy of the radial velocity changes, but a basic simulation would also work.

I'm confused.

What you want seems to be a model that does what? Show changes in exoplanetary radial velocities as a function of stellar mass? I'm guessing here. That won't help you at all.

So please clarify what you need. Thanks.
 
It is not about exoplanets simulator and I am sure you have already check NASA resources but I will add this link as I love to travel through our Solar system with help of it :) Solar System Exploration
 
Is a homemade radio telescope realistic? There seems to be a confluence of multiple technologies that makes the situation better than when I was a wee lad: software-defined radio (SDR), the easy availability of satellite dishes, surveillance drives, and fast CPUs. Let's take a step back - it is trivial to see the sun in radio. An old analog TV, a set of "rabbit ears" antenna, and you're good to go. Point the antenna at the sun (i.e. the ears are perpendicular to it) and there is...
3I/ATLAS, also known as C/2025 N1 (ATLAS) and formerly designated as A11pl3Z, is an iinterstellar comet. It was discovered by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) station at Río Hurtado, Chile on 1 July 2025. Note: it was mentioned (as A11pl3Z) by DaveE in a new member's introductory thread. https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/brian-cox-lead-me-here.1081670/post-7274146 https://earthsky.org/space/new-interstellar-object-candidate-heading-toward-the-sun-a11pl3z/ One...
