Gravity used to be the most down-to-earth of ideas, the thing that kept apples falling and planets in line. Now a growing ...

FLAMINGO simulation maps the universe but reveals a puzzling mismatch: galaxies cluster less than theory predicts.

Physicists have spent decades arguing over whether our universe is a fundamental reality or a kind of cosmic software, and ...

Researchers have created the most detailed simulation of the history of the universe, complete with exploding gas clouds, swirling galaxies, ravenous black holes and countless stars – born to die in ...

If true (and it’s a pretty big “if”), Vopson’s new gravitational study would shake the foundations of the currently accepted view of the universe. In his paper, Vopson writes that his new work could ...

The FLAMINGO super simulation maps the universe from its earliest moments but finds galaxies cluster less than cosmological ...

This amazing 3D map was developed by a team from Durham University in England, revealing the correct locations and properties of local group galaxies. Using a supercomputer, the simulation was ...

The most detailed simulation of the universe ever created has provided a breakthrough revealing how the most powerful and mysterious forces interact on an enormous scale. Scientists said the detail ...

A philosophical thought experiment has long held that it is more likely than not that we're living inside a machine. The theory basically goes that any civilisation which could evolve to a 'post-human ...

Scientists have created an entire universe inside a computer to learn about how our universe formed. Dubbed Illustris: The Next Generation, or IllustrisTNG for short, the simulated cosmos is the most ...

THERE is a one in three chance our Universe is a simulation created by a more advanced species than humans, a scientist has astonishingly said. The simulation theory was first popularised in 2003 when ...
