exoExplorer is a free Windows application being developed by Tom Morris of planetarybiology.com and Fullerton College. Its goal is to help astronomers, astrobiologists and astronomy enthusiasts visualize exoplanet environments.
Visualizing hundreds of exoplanet environments with nothing more than a large table of data is laborious, unsatisfying and uninspiring. By providing several 3-D screens, exoExplorer lets users immerse themselves in the exoplanet’s simulated environment and see what it might be like to be on this planet or a moon orbiting nearby. exoExplorer lets you walk around, look around, drive around and fly around these mysterious new worlds.
