Galaxy Simulator can simulate the motion of stars in a region of space.

You can also see graphs, statistics and other information.

Have you always wanted a galaxy to call your own? Well, here is your chance!

GalaxyScreenSaver gives you an otherworldly view of a spiral galaxy much similar to the Milky Way.

The Maya Paint Effects ScreenSaver Application is based on the award winning Maya 3D animation software from Alias|Wavefront. Fill your idle moments with a large variety of natural and not so natural effects.

Make your screen come alive with amazingly detailed flowers, pretzels, vines, galaxies, feathers, copper pipes, or any of the other fascinating Presets provided, or expand your fun by down-loading new Presets.

Celestia is a free real-time space simulation that lets you experience our universe in three dimensions. Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia doesnt confine you to the surface of the Earth.
You can travel throughout the solar system, to any of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy.
All travel in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets you explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters down to spacecraft only a few meters across.
A point-and-goto interface makes it simple to navigate through the universe to the object you want to visit.

Parsec LAN-Test 0.99 (build 0197) is a program presenting you the entirely new universe. The core of Parsec will be a network of gameservers each responsible for a single galaxy comprised of several solar systems. All gameservers will be registered at the central Parsec masterserver from where you can select a specific gameserver for playing.

The basic unit of game play is a single solar system but you can jump from system to system as you like. There are no game sessions that have to be started explicitly. You can seamlessly join and unjoin a gameserver at any time. But beware! While you are peacefully exploring the universe everyone else will try to shoot you down to advance their position in the roster of all-time Parsec legends. If you want to become a legend yourself, you will have to eliminate a lot of other spacecraft and still prevail to collect the honor.

Gameservers (that is, galaxies) have their own dedicated position in the Parsec universe and are connected to nearby galaxies via stargates. The server transition involved in this jump is handled transparently by the masterserver and the involved gameservers.
