The most realistic computer simulation of star formation yet offers stunning views of what the inside of a stellar nursery might look like. In the Star Formation in Gaseous Environments simulation, or ...

Merging neutron stars are excellent targets for multi-messenger astronomy. This modern and still very young method of astrophysics coordinates observations of the various signals from one and the same ...

The most detailed simulations to date of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) hint that we may need to rethink our understanding of how stars form in these vast cosmic objects. GMCs, sometimes referred to as ...

A team of researchers from Northwestern University have created a high-resolution 3D simulation of the moment a star is formed. The gorgeous animation is the most realistic of its kind to date, ...

An international research collaboration has used advanced computer simulations to investigate how faint radio signals from ...

NASA’s Super Soaker mission was basically an extreme DIY project: To better understand how noctilucent, or night-shining clouds form, researchers made one from scratch. One frigid, predawn morning in ...

Luminary is rethinking physics simulation workflows spanning GPU clusters from the ground up. The new company hopes the new architecture and business model will impact the simulation industry as much ...
