Scientists have exercised god-like powers by creating an entire universe of their own.
The man-made cosmos is a computer simulation in which galaxies similar to those observed by astronomers grow and evolve.
Two of the world's most powerful supercomputers - the "Cosmology Machine" at the University of Durham and "Curie" in Paris - were used to conduct the simulations, which took several months to run.

The makers of big brother have been doing that for years.

That is about right Wyatt


Thumbs up


Interesting how they were able to simulate time going backwards.
