## What is Paleo Planet Sim?

Build a planet. Run its climate. Watch its weather.

Paleo Planet Sim runs real research models on worlds you design. Choose a division:
Earth-like keeps every setting inside what Earth itself has been through; Extreme opens
everything the model can survive. Set the sun, the greenhouse, the tilt, the length of
the day and the depth of the ocean, then pick a geography: Earth, Pangea and other
ancient Earths, an all-ocean world, a supercontinent, or paint your own continents with
the terrain brush (Apple Pencil supported).

Launch it and a real climate model runs 45 simulated years in the cloud
while you do something else. You'll get a notification when it finishes, usually in
1.5 to 3.5 hours.

Explore the result on a 3-D globe: temperature, biomes, terrain, snow and rain, month by
month, with a magnifier to read any spot. See the records your planet set, its climate
charts and maps, and compare any two planets side by side.

Then make weather. Pick a moment from your planet's own history and run a real weather
model for 5, 10 or 15 days. Watch clouds, rain and snow, wind, the jet
stream and tropical cyclones move across your globe and map.

Every valid planet is ranked on the leaderboards, with gold, silver and bronze for each
record. Time-limited challenges set one goal, one deadline and in-app prizes.

Looking is free: spin the reference planets, play their forecasts and browse every board.
Runs use credits. You start with 5; a planet is 1 credit and a forecast is 1 per 5 days.
Prices are always shown before you launch.

Made by a PhD atmospheric scientist.
