Simulator/Interactives:
A number of missions to navigate a starship - requires setting correct angle and thrust for orbit and gravitational slingshot to reach a space-station:
This Rocket-Sled Interactive illustrates the effect of friction, air resistance, and applied force upon a sledder. The speed, acceleration, and force values are displayed as the sled moves. Learners can vary the mass of the sledder and the size of the parachute that is attached to it.
