Astrophyzix Launches SolarForm — A Real‑Time Solar System Formation Simulation Engine

A One of a Kind, Unique, Real‑Time Solar System Formation Simulation Engine

Written by: Astrophyzix Digital Observatory

Platform Update Astrophysics Simulation Educational Module

Introduction

Astrophyzix is proud to announce the release of SolarForm, a scientifically rigorous, real‑time simulation engine that models the birth and evolution of a planetary system from the collapse of a protoplanetary nebula to the emergence of planetesimals, proto‑planets, and gas giants.

SolarForm is designed as an educational scientific module, providing the public, students, and astronomy enthusiasts with a clear, interactive way to explore the physics that shaped our Solar System. The module is powered by real astrophysical equations, peer‑reviewed models, and a direct N‑body gravitational integrator.

A Real‑Time Window Into Planetary Formation

SolarForm simulates the early stages of solar system formation using physically grounded models drawn from astrophysics, celestial mechanics, and planetary science. Users can watch a nebular disk evolve dynamically as bodies collide, merge, accrete, and migrate under gravity.

Key features include:

• N‑body gravitational physics using a velocity‑Verlet symplectic integrator.
• Planetesimal growth and accretion through inelastic collisions with gravitational focusing.
• Protoplanetary disk density profiles based on the Minimum Mass Solar Nebula (MMSN).
• Keplerian orbital initialization scaled by nebula mass and angular momentum.
• Snowline physics determining where ice bodies and gas giant cores can form.
• Real‑time classification of bodies into planetesimals, proto‑planets, rocky planets, and gas giants.

The simulation updates continuously, allowing users to observe the chaotic, emergent behaviour of early planetary systems as they stabilize over time.

Astrophyzix Unveils the Live Global Observatory Telescope Viewer and Multi-Space Agency Mission Viewer

A Free, Unified Interface for Live Telescope Feeds Worldwide

Written by: Astrophyzix Digital Observatory

Platform Update Real-Time Astronomy Public Access Module

Introduction

Astrophyzix today announces the launch of the Global Observatory Viewer, a new real‑time module that consolidates publicly available livestreams from major observatories into a single, unified interface.

The Global Observatory Viewer does not operate its own telescope network. Instead, it provides a centralized, high‑reliability viewing environment for existing public feeds from world‑class facilities including the Subaru Telescope, the Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), ALMA, KISO Observatory, and several robotic telescopes across Europe and the Canary Islands.

The module is designed to give the public, educators, and astronomy enthusiasts a clear, coherent way to explore real‑time observatory activity without navigating multiple platforms, channels, or inconsistent interfaces.
