In a video, Slayton explained that he started skydiving so he could e the planet from a different perspective, before using mathematical concepts to make sure that the univer was made to an accurate scale. In order to fit all of the planets in the univer into the simulation(模拟), every planet would need to be 700,000 times smaller.

e sun. He ud the brightest blocks in the game to build the star, adding solar flares(光) to make it “feel alive”.
