First Full Observable-Universe Simulation 95
First time accepted submitter slashmatteo writes "The goal of the DEUS project (Dark Energy Universe Simulation) is to investigate the imprints of dark energy on cosmic structure formation through high-performance numerical simulations. In order to do so, the project has conducted a simulation of the structuring of the entire observable universe, from the Big Bang to the present day. Thanks to the Curie super-computer, the simulation has made it possible to follow the evolution of 550 billion particles. Two other complementary runs are scheduled by the end of May. More details in the press release."

All we need is a pointer to Earth that says 'You are here.' and it's game over for us all!

Well I once heard that to have a real simulation of the universe, you would need to have a computer the size of the universe
Not if we use winzip to compress it.

You're looking at now, sir. Everything that happens now is happening now.
What happened to then?
We passed then.
When?
Just now. We're at now now.
Go back to then.
When?
Now!
Now?
Now!
I can't.
Why?
We missed it.
When?
Just now.
When will then be now?
Soon.

I didn't RTFA, but DEUS sounds like the perfect name for this project.
In fact, running on the Curie supercomputer makes it a DEUS ex machina!
