Universe Sandbox - Create your own universe or just play around with the existing
http://universesandbox.com/ http://store.steampowered.com/app/72200/ Found this some days ago as a sales item on Steam. For 7€, i just hit "Buy" and tried it out. Though it bugs on me, i think its a great tool to understand, how vast space is. And you can do many fun things. Increasing the size of the sun, or moon, bombarding planets with asteroids (or other planets), placing new planetary bodies and watch how they would develop in fast forward, etc. I recommend it to anybody with an interest in astronomical SCIENCE

It's certainly interesting but I do question its accuracy. If you accelerate the solar system model at high speed (say, to the point that you're advancing about a decade a second), it goes crazy and sends all the planets flying out into the void at about the 5000 year mark. Don't know if that's just me but feel free to try it out yourself.
