The world's second fastest supercomputer — it used to be the fastest, before its rival machine came online earlier this month — has created the most complex computer simulation of the universe ...

In this incredible video, scientists from the Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory reveal the largest computer simulation of the universe ever created.

Scientists made a twin version of our universe, showing the evolution of all forms of matter and energy, in the biggest cosmological computer simulation to date.

Argonne National Laboratory scientists performed the most extensive simulation of the cosmos on Frontier supercomputer. What happened next?

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 ...

To recreate the cosmos on a computer, we first need to know what it’s made of. Davé sets the scene by clearly explaining the so-called “concordance model”, which tells us that the universe is 68% dark ...

If recent measurements of cosmic ray particles are correct, then we may have the first evidence that the universe as we know it is really a giant computer simulation ...

Illustris Collaboration The new Illustris simulation of the evolution of the universe shows how galaxies could have distributed in the cosmos after the universe began more than 13 billion years ago.
