Sol Atlas
Plan the route. Prove it. Fly it.
Choose a world, inspect the route evidence, then enter a cinematic, controllable 3D flight.
369 bodiesOrdered waypointsArchive-derived replay
One continuous decision
The route stays accountable.
Sol Atlas connects trajectory planning, evidence, and flight without hiding the boundaries between them.
Prove
Inspect encounter geometry, uncertainty, source coverage, and rejection reasons.
Fly
Enter a controllable Metal-rendered journey through the route you selected.
Mission design
See why a candidate route passes or fails.
Compare departure date, time of flight, Lambert topology, close approaches, gravity-assist context, B-plane geometry, and route uncertainty. Add ordered waypoints when a direct route is not the mission you want.
- Source coverage and approximation boundaries remain visible.
- Rejected routes identify the physical constraint that failed.
- Optional science packs disclose their exact size before download.
Deep-space history
Replay the mission. Never mistake it for live.
Selected historical trajectories are reconstructed from archives and labelled as replays. Travelled and remaining arcs stay visually distinct while time and camera remain under your control.
The atlas
Start with a world, not a menu of equations.
Search 369 listed bodies and inspect their scientific context before committing to a route. Textured planets, major moons, rings, and close-approach geometry bring the destination back into view.
Free to begin
Earth to Moon. MESSENGER. No subscription.
Search and inspect every listed destination, fly the Earth-to-Moon guided route, and replay MESSENGER for free.
