Planetary Simulation: Education Edition
A classroom-ready planetary simulation platform powered by the E.D.E.N. engine.
Planetary Simulation: Education Edition brings the E.D.E.N. architecture into STEM classrooms, labs, and learning environments — offering students and educators a hands-on planetary simulation experience built on real scientific principles.
This is not a “gamified lesson pack.”
It is a genuine simulation wrapped in educational tools.
A Planet Built on Scientific Principles
Education Edition is built on the same geodesic and field-based substrate used across the entire E.D.E.N. ecosystem.
Students interact with:
- real deterministic simulation
- true equal-area planetary geometry
- dynamic environmental systems
- global phenomena that behave coherently
This provides a level of authenticity that traditional educational tools struggle to match.
Guided Scenarios
Education Edition includes curated simulation scenarios that explore:
- climate patterns
- water cycles
- erosion and terrain formation
- atmospheric behavior
- planetary heat distribution
Each scenario is built to be:
- classroom-friendly
- interactive
- visually intuitive
- aligned with core STEM concepts
Scientific Overlays
Every major system can be visualized through:
- scalar heatmaps
- tile-level data views
- edge-direction flows
- vector fields
- comparative layers
These overlays help students see the hidden structure of planetary systems.
Timeline Tools
Time can be:
- paused
- accelerated
- rewound to earlier checkpoints
- stepped forward in controlled increments
This supports both classroom demonstration and self-guided exploration.
Educator Tools
Features designed for teachers and facilitators:
- scenario presets
- lesson-aligned modules
- simplified interfaces
- reproducible starting conditions
- exportable data snapshots
Education Edition prioritizes clarity and control.
Designed for Classrooms and Labs
Education Edition is suitable for:
- high school STEM
- introductory earth science
- college general education
- research outreach programs
- after-school and informal learning
It demonstrates complex systems in a way students can see, manipulate, and understand.
