Over the course of a few weeks during the summer of 2021, while I had a little free time, I purchased Kerbal Space Program (KSP) about which I had heard good things, and I immersed myself in it. (See https://www.kerbalspaceprogram.com/.) First introduced in 2011, KSP is a space-flight computer simulation game, which -- I immediately found out -- exclusively uses the metric system. Challenging and highly educational, KSP provides a fascinating tool to teach science. Although the game does not perfectly simulate reality, "it has been praised for its accurate orbital mechanics", says the Wikipedia entry on KSP.
