junket your eye on Arepo , a computer computer simulation capable of modeling the birth and evolution of an total cosmos . It was plan by scientists at the Harvard - Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in collaboration with researchers at the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies , and unlike previous simulator , this one can reproduce the full range of galaxies that we see in our own immediate Universe .
Writes Wired ’s Liat Clark :
Unlike previous model simulators , such as the Gadget code , Arepo ’s hydrodynamic exemplar retroflex the gaseous formations follow the Big Bang by using a virtual , pliable grid that has the electrical capacity to move to match the motion of the gas , stars , dark matter and black energy that make up space — it ’s like a virtual model of the cosmic web , able to bend and flex to support the matter and celestial bodies that make up the universe . Old simulators instead used a more regimented , fixed , cubic grid .
“ We take all the advantages of premature codes and removed the disadvantages , ” explained Volker Springel , the astrophysicist who make the software , in a CfA release .
