Volume

Volume is a property of physical objects representing the amount of 3D space that the object occupies. All objects in Universe Sandbox are simulated as spheres, so an object's Volume can be calculated from its Radius, R, using the formula for the volume of a sphere:


 * $$ V = \frac{4}{3}\pi R^3. $$

Location
The Volume property of an object can be found in the Cumulative Properties section of its Composition tab, if the object has one.

Units
Volume can be viewed and edited using the following units:


 * Volume of the Sun (sun) = 1.41×1027 m3
 * Volume of the Earth (earth) = 1.08×1021 m3
 * Volume of the Earth's Oceans (earth's ocean) = 2.0386×1018 m3
 * Liters (liter) is the SI unit for volume
 * Meters cubed (m3) = 1000 liter
