Gravitation simulation of planetary bodies
Planets is a simple interactive program for playing with simulations of planetary systems. It is great for teaching gravitation on planet level.
The user interface is aimed at being simple enough for a fairly young kid to enjoy it (it has a special kid-mode for this purpose).
