Description:
Galaxy is a free Linux computer program which simulates the motion of
 stars under the influence of gravity. Create a field of random stars
 to begin with, then watch the stars move as they are accelerated by
 their mutual gravitational attractions. You can vary the number of
 stars and the strength of gravity. Watch how the attractive forces
 accelerate individual stars and send them careening in new directions.
 Watch how large groups of stars develop into interesting patterns over
 time, such as clusters and spiral arms.
