SpaceCAD5.0.0.240

Before taking any project out in the field it's best to design it using a computer application for an accurate analysis. SpaceCAD gives you the possibility to plan rocket ships, view them in 2D and 3D, but also simulate a launch to see how practical it gets.

Closely manage every detail

The application features a simple user interface which allows you to quickly accommodate. Only a few minutes in and you find yourself adding or removing elements. Choosing either one, which can range from nose of the ship to fins and engines, brings up a new window requiring you to fill in several specific details.Even though you get the feeling the result is not far away, the process itself is close to rocket science. Careful adjustments need to be done, besides shape, size and color. Without clever calculus, your rocket might end up being just a pretty decoration object.

View the model in 3D

The workspace gives you a 2D side view of your project, with measurements included. You are able to switch to 3D, rotate zoom in and out, as well as save to an image file. This type of view shines if you want to make careful adjustments to the visual aspect of the rocket ship.

Test the performance in a simulation

When all elements are included, you are able to take the prototype on a test run to see how it performs. Hitting the “Launch Rocket” button brings up a chart that displays detailed info on the flight path and behavior.

In conclusion

To sum it up, SpaceCAD lives up to its expectations, being a practical rocket design application. You can keep track of every technical detail with ease, as well as view the rocket ship and print out a photo of it. If you want to send an object to space, don't hesitate to make a few tests with this utility before launch.
