0.991 is still in beta, but when it's publicly released there will be a variety of updates, including ones for globular clusters!

You can read more about those updates in our September blog posts: spaceengine.org/news/

Did you know #exoplanet Gilese 3998 d is six times the mass of Earth?

It was discovered this year and you can visit in #SpaceEngine!

Did you know when Hoag's Object was discovered in 1950, Arthur Hoag said it was either a #galaxy or planetary nebula. We now know it's a galaxy.

Have you visited it in #SpaceEngine recently?

While the Pacman Nebula isn't scary itself, some say it has Halloween-esque features in that you can see a face in it at times.

Have you ever seen a face in the #PacmanNebula?

What's the scariest object in the universe? Some might say #blackholes.

If you dare, you can always visit them in #SpaceEngine.

1/2: If you think having different time zones AND daylight savings is a lot did you know one of our celestial neighbours might be joining us?

The moon might soon have it own standardized or coordinated time!

Did you know moons can be sad? Well at least this one is in #SpaceEngine. 😛

Do you have a screenshot or video of your #SpaceEngine travels that you're especially proud of? Do you want to share it with the community?

If so, email [email protected] and we can share it on our socials.

Have you ever found an object in #SpaceEngine that kind of looks like something else?

To team member Mike, this planet looked a bit like a snow globe. What do you think?

As we gear up for 0.991 (details in our latest blog post if you missed the news last week!), we wanted to share this Fall-esque planet (from team member Mike) since it's the Fall season in some parts of the world.
