Buoyancy: why does it float or sink?

Compare body density, fluid density, buoyant force, and equilibrium to explain why an object floats, sinks, or stays suspended in a liquid.

All Simulations

Apollo Parachute Descent

Configure Apollo’s parachute descent and see how deployment timing and Euler’s method affect a safe splashdown.

Apollo: Re-entry

Test Apollo return trajectories, hit the safe corridor, and see why mathematics and computation mattered for bringing the capsule home.
