This Gravitational Wave Simulator provides an interactive visualization of how disturbances propagate through the fabric of space-time. It offers a simplified representation of gravitational waves, allowing users to explore the dynamic nature of space-time and how it responds to perturbations/disturbances (clicks).
Click anywhere on the grid to create a gravitational wave that propagates outward. Click multiple times to generate multiple waves and observe their interactions. Click and drag to rotate the view and observe the simulation from different angles.Watch as waves dissipate upon reaching the edge of the visible space-time fabric.
