Escape Velocity

Pick the launch speed that lets a rocket barely escape each planet — from the Moon to a neutron star.

How to play

Drag the arrow up from the launchpad to set speed, then Launch. Hint: escape speed is v = √(2GM/R), and you must land within ±5% of the true value. Clear all five bodies to graduate.
