How it's made
Every game and tool on AstroArcade is hand-built with vanilla HTML5, CSS and JavaScript โ all graphics are drawn in code and all sounds are synthesized in real time. Nothing is scraped, cloned or ripped from other sites, and no external game assets are used. The calculator data comes from public NASA planetary fact sheets.
How it's funded
AstroArcade is free to use. To keep the lights on, the site may display ads (for example via Google AdSense) โ those help cover hosting costs so the games and tools can stay free for everyone. See our Privacy Policy for details on cookies and advertising.
