Summary

This episode explores how scientists use massive supercomputer simulations to recreate the evolution of the Universe. By modeling dark matter, dark energy, gravity, and the tiny fluctuations left after the Big Bang, researchers can generate virtual cosmic webs that reveal how galaxies and large-scale structures emerged across billions of years.
