Biggest ever cosmos simulation

[RobertSeattle]

(Is this why DU was running slow over the weekend? :evilgrin: )

The simulation is the biggest ever attempted
Astronomers have used supercomputers to re-create how the Universe evolved into the shape it is today.

The simulation by an international team is the biggest ever attempted and shows how structures in the Universe changed and grew over billions of years.

The Millennium Run, as it is dubbed, could help explain observations made by astronomers and shed more light on the Universe's elusive dark energy field.

Details of the study appear in the latest issue of Nature magazine.

1. But, but, but.....it says in Genesis exactly how and when the.....

...universe was created and by whom it was created.

This is really going to piss off about 100,000,000 Christian fundamentalists around the world who don't need a network of supercomputers, running a database of 100 billion observations of galaxy movements using millions of lines of simulation software code and a team of pointy headed liberal godless scientists to extrapolate the growth patterns of the universe to satisfy their perverse atheistic theories of humanism and communism. For them God created everything in six days finishing the job 6,583 years ago.

God gave man (specifically Caucasian looking Aryans) dominion over the entire universe to allow the development of capitalism and free market economies to flourish, anointing those most enterprising individuals with the accumulation of the greatest amounts of wealth, the power and imagination to exploit all of the God given resources available to the maximum potential. Furthermore, God shows his love to those individuals who provided the greatest obedience and productivity to the blessed rich by rewarding them with eternal salvation in the hereafter.

As for the rest of the wretched creatures of this world who disobey the will of their divine leaders and overseers who fail to produce because they are forever engaged in debauchery and actions associated with the seven deadly sins not to mention the countless other sins which the holiest of God's servants routinely define through constant vigilance and observation of these eternal sinners, God has bestowed on them a special place of eternal damnation where the wrenching stench of fellow slothful sinners which secretes from their rotting and burning flesh and corrupted souls in Lucifer's hell of fire and brimstone. That place is located in the underworld right below Kansas under John Ashkroft's home!
