See the Universe like NEVER before as mind-blowing simulation of the cosmos is released - and it's the largest one to date
Scientists have used the world's fastest supercomputer to show the universe as it has never been seen before. 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 have revealed the largest simulation of the universe ever created, simulating an area of 31 billion cubic megaparsecs When astronomers look at distant galaxies through a powerful telescope like the James Webb Space Telescope they are able to look back in time to the early days of the cosmos. This mindboggling clip only shows 0.001 per cent of the whole simulation This new simulation is on a scale with the largest maps of the cosmos ever created such as the ESA's Euclid cosmic atlas The simulation captures the formation of galactic filaments such as the Laniakea filament which contains hundreds of thousands of galaxies including the Milky Way How many stars are in the universe? Pictured: a NASA simulation of the formation of dark matter structures in the early universe The only way that dark matter supposedly affects the universe around it is by exerting a gravitational pull.


Dark matter existed in the universe even before the Big Bang, new research suggests
