The notion that our universe might be a giant simulation has intrigued scientists and philosophers for decades. Recent ...

VIRTUAL UNIVERSE In a snapshot from the Illustris computer simulation of the universe, galaxies (pink) cluster along filaments of dark matter (blue). Shown is the most massive cluster in the ...

The computer simulation can recreate 13 billion years of cosmic evolution in a cube that is about 350 million light years on each side.

Of some help could be a new computer simulation that traces how all elements of the universe — ordinary matter, dark matter and dark energy — evolve according to the laws of physics.

AI expert Dr Roman Yampolskiy explained on Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett the reason why he's 'almost certain' ...

The Bolshoi Simulation is a massive, incredibly detailed model of everything, providing a comprehensive simulation of the universe’s 14 billion year history. Scientists are now exploring the ...

Astronomers have performed the first-ever computer model simulation of the structuring of the entire observable universe, from the Big Bang to the present day. The simulation has made it possible ...

A new simulation showing the evolution of the universe traces the formation of the cosmic web of galaxies scientists see today. The simulation - called Illustris - covers about 13 billion years of ...

A new computer simulation of the universe spans more than 13.8 billion years. Shown at various points in its evolution, the universe often presents as a constellation of galaxies, each one a ...

A team of astronomers have developed a computer simulation called "Illustris," which took five years to program and, for the first time, can recreate the evolution of the Universe in high fidelity.
