I think it would be cool if you could make your own solar systems in universe sandbox, then export them to simplerockets and explore the solar system you made and land on the planets.

This will require significant effort from both developing teams and has little benefits.

@Kell - personally I would like the benefit of better plausibility of fictional solar systems. US² can help a designer find planet compositions, atmosphere compositions, temperatures, and orbit parameters that are self-consistent. First, I think there's an educational benefit to exploring more realistic planets building. Second, as a player I think there's a benefit to planning a mission for a planet by making guesses about the destination based on real phenomena.
I think the US² output is already in an open json format, so there may not be any changes needed on the US² side. And writing an importer for SR2 might be straightforward.
