Scientists Complete Universe Millennium Simulation

/. james tech writes “The Virgo Consortium recently completed its massive “Millennium Simulation”, tracing the universe’s evolution from its early origins to present day. To simplify the computations, they considered only dark matter which composes most of the universe. Using a 512-node cluster with IBM
processors, the group produced over 20 terabytes of data with some of the most breathtaking images of the universe never seen. A visible matter simulation is underway, at a lower resolution.”
