The simulation consists of 18 simulations covering various scales - each a cubic mock-up of space up to 1 billion light years wide - tracing the evolution of the Universe from just after the Big Bang into the future.
Even though we cannot physically access the 4D world, being aware of its existence will pave the way to future discoveries and a better understanding of our Universe.
We've never actually found any genuine proof for the existence of a multiverse - until now.
Physicists have a new scenario of the universe's expansion at the Big Bang that may explain why our universe has three large spatial dimensions.
Previously undetected matter was found in the form of gas filaments between galaxies, which is a major step toward explaining the structure of the cosmos.
Mathematical roadblocks with quantum mechanics indicate that the so-called simulation hypothesis is impossible.
Fast radio bursts were first detected in 2001. Since then, astronomers have found a couple of dozen FRBs, but they still don’t know what causes these rapid and powerful bursts of radio emission.
Dark Energy Survey scientists unveiled the most accurate measurement ever made of the present large-scale structure of dark matter in the Universe.
Using data from the Sloan Digitial Sky Survey, an Indian team of astronomers has discovered one of the largest cosmic structures to date - the Saraswati Supercluster.
When running Hawking and Hartles’ as well as Vilenkin’s, math, the new team didn’t get the teeny quantum fluctuations required to create today’s universe.
A team of astrophysicists from UZH has simulated the formation of the entire Universe, producing a catalog that will help unlock the secrets of the "Dark Universe".
A presentation at the June 6th AAS meeting confirms that our galaxy is inside an enormous cosmic void, the largest one ever discovered.
Astronomers with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) have created the first map of the large-scale structure of the Universe based entirely on the positions of quasars.
The hypothesis is cosmological natural selection, and its power, beauty and logic provide what may be the best scientific explanation for the existence of complexity and life in the universe.
Astronomers have performed an accurate census of the number of galaxies in the universe. There are at least 10 times as many galaxies in the observable universe as previously thought.
