Description

Galaxy Collider is an interactive 3D simulation of galactic mergers involving 262,000 stars, modeled after the Toomre & Toomre (1972) research. Users can manipulate mass ratios and tilt angles via a physical-style control console to observe how gravity creates tidal tails and bridges during collisions.
