Physics simulation for 484 particles interacting each other by gravity attractive force. Crunched with Computer Physics Lab. Rendered in 5 minutes. The simulation starts from a regular and symmetrical pattern made of 22 rows of 22 particles each one. The vertical and horizontal gap between particles is constant.

We may observe that the symmetry is broken about the step 10000 due to the unavoidable limited computer math precision.

The first 11 rows is made of red particles and the next 11 rows is composed of blue particles. This way we can follow the surface distribution evolution.

This simulation is a reply to a YouTube video found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmMMF7O77Ok published by TheReasonWhyGuy.

Thanks for the comments.

  • @DKM101 Yes, but it is not possible to solve the equation for 3 or more bodies.

  • Cheer up! the limited computer math precision isn't unavoidable! All you have to do is solve for the exact equation of 484 attractors!

  • Tell me what to update ...

  • C language.

  • Hey you might want to update the video description since I've reuploaded the video you're responding to...

  • Um... what language was this written in?
