Cosmological simulation of universe evolution

"Cosmological Simulation" presented by Volker Springel in PASCOS 2011 Conference, Cambridge, July 2011. http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/research/gr/workshops/PASCOS/2011/presentations/Sp...

"Predictions from N-body simulations: Abundance of objects (as a function of mass and time). Their spatial distribution. Internal structure of halos (e.g. density profiles, spin). Mean formation epochs. Merger rates. Detailed dark matter distribution on large and fairly small scales. Galaxy formation models. Gravitational lensing. Baryonic acoustic oscillations in the matter distribution. Integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect. Dark matter annihilation rate. Morphology of large-scale structure ("cosmic web"). Etc."

@calluseiam777 that's exactly what I say too! amazing! Maybe it's a different kind of "brain". Perhaps we live in the mind of some cosmological being and we are projections in smaller scales of his views. Like sight and dreams works.. we may be memories stored in some part of these "cosmic neurons".

I'd like to see a simulator that lets the user tweak the fundamental constants and see the results on all scales.

Now this is something I would pay to see in 3D.

like neurons in a brain.
