Interactive tutorials for all ages
Learn space, aviation, and physics by changing the numbers.
TexFlow Science gives students quick experiments they can touch: orbit altitude, aircraft lift, projectile motion, concept checks, and guided explanations that adjust by age group.

Why satellites do not fall straight down
A satellite is always falling toward Earth, but it is moving sideways fast enough that Earth curves away beneath it.
Gravity pulls the satellite down.
Sideways speed keeps carrying it forward.
If the speed is just right, the path becomes an orbit.
Live simulator
Orbit calculator
Change the orbital altitude and see how speed and orbit time respond.

Quick question
If a satellite moves to a much higher orbit, what usually happens to its orbital speed?
Space
Orbits, rockets, planets
Build intuition for satellites, escape speed, Moon missions, Mars transfers, telescopes, and space weather.
Aviation
Lift, drag, navigation
Explore why wings work, how pilots balance forces, what stalls mean, and how aircraft find their way.
Physics
Motion, energy, forces
Use simple simulations to connect equations with motion, momentum, energy, waves, and electricity.
