gas · gravity · time — a cosmos that lives, burns and dies on its own
PleiadiEvery dot is matter. Gas (faint wisps) falls together under gravity until a knot collapses and ignites — a star is born, its colour set by its mass: red dwarfs smoulder for ages, blue giants burn furious and brief. Dying giants go supernova, blasting their neighbourhood and seeding it with fresh gas for the next generation; what's left collapses into a sweeping pulsar, a flaring magnetar, or a black hole that feeds, glows and grows — announced by a gamma-ray burst. Smaller suns swell into red giants and fade out as white dwarfs; failed collapses smoulder as brown dwarfs; dusty gas carves dark lanes through the glow. Zoom right in and stars resolve into little planetary systems. Nothing is scripted — it's one gravity rule and a life cycle.
Try this: hit 💥 Big Bang and watch structure condense out of the fireball, or seed a 💫 Collision and watch two galaxies tear each other apart. Drag to pan, scroll to zoom, and click any star or black hole to ride along with it. 📺 Auto turns it into a self-running planetarium.
