About

Delta-V Academy is a hands-on 3D simulator for learning how orbits actually work. Spin the Earth, drag a satellite into orbit, change its altitude or shape, and watch orbital mechanics respond in real time. No math background is required to start, with enough depth to challenge people who already know the difference between a Hohmann transfer and a ground track. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Fly ten guided lessons that build from the basics to full space situational awareness, each written for four levels: Kids, Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced. - Adjust altitude, eccentricity, and inclination with live sliders and see period, speed, and ground tracks update instantly. - Watch guided mission replays, including Apollo 11’s flight from Earth parking orbit into lunar orbit, an ISS rendezvous, and JWST’s cruise to L2. - Build satellite constellations and Walker deltas, then study their coverage. - Explore sensor geometry and space domain awareness with ground radar and space-based trackers. - Trigger a Kessler debris cascade and see why orbital congestion matters. - Capture screenshots and video of your own missions. LEARN AT YOUR LEVEL Pick Kids mode for plain-English labels and a friendly guided path, or step up to Advanced for J2 perturbations, oblate-Earth ground tracks, and multi-sensor architectures. Switch anytime. MISSION ARCHITECT Describe a mission in plain English and Delta-V Academy builds it for you in the simulator. Free accounts include three generations per day. FREE TO LEARN Kids and Novice tracks are free. Pro unlocks higher tracks, scenario JSON exports, the Walker builder, and 40 Mission Architect generations per day. Lifetime includes the same features with 15 generations per day. Lesson 1 of every track is available without an account. Whether you are a student, teacher, space enthusiast, or professional seeking an intuitive understanding of orbital mechanics, Delta-V Academy turns abstract equations into something you can see and steer.

What's New in DeltaV Academy

1.4

October 13, 2026

Mission replays are now more accurate, repeatable, and easier to follow, including Apollo 11’s transfer and visible lunar orbit, ISS rendezvous, JWST’s cruise to L2, and GEO transfer circularization. Improved satellite colors and highlighting make the active spacecraft easier to identify throughout each scenario. This update also refreshes lessons, improves phone layouts and orientation guidance, and introduces the new Free, Pro, and Lifetime access options.
