Educational visualization only. Timings, altitude, velocity, camera motion, and trajectories are simplified for learning and are not operational launch guidance.
Rocket flight simulator
3D launch, orbit, and landing simulation.
Explore a camera-controlled mission scene with launchpad liftoff, realistic ground perspective, trajectory, MECO, separation, SECO, orbit insertion, altitude readouts, reusable return, and single-launch vehicle mode.
Upper-Stage Trajectory
The blue dashed mission path now follows launch, powered ascent, MECO, serial staging, second-stage burn, SECO, orbital altitude hold, orbital velocity, and payload separation.
Reusable Booster Return
Reusable mode shows a separate first-stage path for attitude control, ballistic return, re-entry burn, landing burn, and first-stage touchdown on the floating barge.
Single-Use Disposal
Single launch mode replaces the landing path with one discarded booster trajectory, ballistic re-entry, ocean impact marker, and no reusable return line.
Launch From Pad
The scene uses a perspective ground plane, ocean zone, floating barge, service tower, hold-down deck, moving pad arms, and runway-style markings.
Phase Labels
Labels inside the canvas match the reference diagram: powered ascent, main engine cutoff, serial staging, second-stage burn, SECO, payload separation, re-entry burn, and landing burn.
Move, Rotate, Zoom
Use manual camera controls, follow mode, launchpad view, or flythrough mode to inspect the rocket, ground, trajectory, ocean disposal, barge landing, and orbit.
