A physicist has mounted one of the most detailed technical challenges yet against the idea that our universe is a computer ...

The Gordon Bell Climate Prize-winning team reached a landmark this year by being the first team ever to develop a Full Earth Simulation at 1 km (extremely high) Resolution. St. Louis, MO, November 20, ...

Imagine if scientists discovered a giant asteroid with a 72% chance of hitting the Earth in about 14 years — a space rock so big that it could not only take out a city but devastate a whole region.

It's a creeping movement, but a momentous one. Some 200 million years ago, a single, extraordinary supercontinent called Pangea dominated Earth. Ultimately, landmasses ruptured and pulled apart, ...

Researchers have recreated the tumultuous beginnings of Earth, simulating what the planet was like just after its formation 4.5 billion years ago. The results, derived from a new computer model, ...

Andy Hogg works for Australia's Climate Simulator (ACCESS-NRI), based at the Australian National University. He receives funding for ACCESS-NRI from the Department of Education through the National ...

The year is 2065. Nearly two-thirds of Earth’s ozone is gone — not just over the poles, but everywhere. The infamous ozone hole over Antarctica, first discovered in the 1980s, is a year-round fixture, ...

In a paper published with Frontiers, researchers in Russia observed volunteers in isolation attempting to replicate life in deep space to see how it would impact their mood and communication styles.

Whether it be racing cars, medical systems, or aircraft, the ability for companies to model and perform simulation of physical, thermal, and electrical characteristics is having a profound impact on ...
