How to Simulate the Universe on your Laptop

The video tutorial explains the large-scale evolution of the universe from just after the Big Bang to the present, focusing on a simulation conducted by researchers at the Max Planck Institute. This simulation, known as the Millennium simulation, used over 10 billion particles and extensive computing resources to model the universe's evolution. The presenter then demonstrates a simplified version of this simulation on a laptop using video effects software, highlighting the process and limitations of this approach.
