MilkyWay1.0

MilkyWay is a lightweight software application developed specifically for helping you simulate a galaxy similar to the Milky Way. It is based on an OpenGL simulation and the real dimensions are changed for better visualisation purposes. The utility can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

Drop it on pen drives

You can take advantage of the program’s portability status and run it without administrative privileges. An installation process is not required because you only need to double-click on the executable file in order to gain access to the interface.It does not store entries in your Windows registry and leave other configuration files so you may uninstall it via a simple deletion task. Plus, you can copy it on USB flash drives or other portable devices so you carry the tool with you all the time, as well as run it straight from the portable device on the target computer.

Clean and simple layout

MilkyWay sports a straightforward design that leaves no room for ambiguities. Although you cannot appeal to a help manual, you can easily get an idea about how the utility works thanks to its intuitive dedicated options.

Simulation parameters

The application offers you the possibility to check out a simulation of a galaxy similar to the Milky Way directly in the main window. What’s more, you are allowed to show or hide the comet and orbits in/from the primary panel.Last but not least, you should know that a screensaver (SCR file format) is included in the portable package. Tests have pointed out that MilkyWay carries out a task quickly and without displaying errors. It is quite friendly with system resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

Final remarks

To sum things up, MilkyWay comes bundled with several basic and easy-to-decode features for helping you explore the Milky Way, and is suitable especially for less experienced users.
