Show HN: Rocket Launch and Orbit Simulator

2026-01-09 @ 19:15:21Points: 125Comments: 35

  Variable gravity
  Variable Atmospheric drag (US Standard Atmosphere 1976)
  Multi-stage rockets
  Closed-loop guidance / pitch programs (works well within ranges 350km to 600km)
  Orbital prediction and thrusting options to change your orbit.
The feedback I'm looking for is: UI improvements and possible future physics implementations that I can work on.

Current code and physics can be found at: https://github.com/donutTheJedi/Rocket-Launch-Simulation

Every post on the feed( on slop/duck/storytime) you see is streamed and generated just-in-time with HTML and into a Canvas with Gemini 3 Flash.

Comments and DMs are bidirectionally linked with a Cloudflare Workers Durable Object which is why they feel so fast. Every generated post is saved into a DO SQLite which is then served into the "Following" feed so it can be served quicker.

This was inspired by Wikitok, a VSCode Extension I made around brainrot, and another fully generative UI site I made.
