Demonstrating the planet, the ISS and the ship all moving independently through space. The ship is able to hold station 1km from the ISS, while both are orbiting the planet at 7.66km/s. All while the planet itself is also in motion around the star.
Real physics, seamless synchronisation.

Gas giants are where you'll skim your fuel from in Starship Simulator, so we're keen for that experience to be epic every time. You'll also be able to fly down a few layers into the gas giant's atmosphere, because science! Each layer gets progressively darker and more fluid-like as you descend.

The new galaxy system is almost finished.
Genesis - is now faster, smoother, much more optimised, and every star visible to the naked eye from Earth is now in the data, amongst so many other things!
Including Multi Star systems 👇

We've been working on our first Shuttle design on streams lately, so we thought it would also be a good time to also start building a proper PID flight controller for both in-space and atmospheric flight.

Congratulations Artemis II!
Coming soon to the demo
As Captain, queue up commands through the holo-display and send them directly to the helm. Sit back and watch your crew explore the galaxy on your orders, step away to your ready room while they scan systems, or even head to the lounge for a break!
Your ship, your command!

We've added core gameplay systems like planetary landings, probes, shuttles, dynamic star systems, and NPC logic over the past couple of months. Most aren't in game yet, but we're polishing them for early access.
We're making great progress for early access!
