For the production of movies for the Adler planetarium Chicago we were
rerunning the Box 64 - 10909 simulation (dark matter only) on the pleiades computer of NAS Ames. For this special purpose 7200 outputs in equal distance delta_a_expn = 0.0001362 were stored. The movie shows the evolution of the Local Group in spherical projection. Credit: CLUES team and C. Henze, N. McCurdy, J.

Same as above, but no spherical projection. At the end of evolution the camera zooms inward and the Local Group, Virgo Cluster and Fornax are labeled.

Evolution of Andromeda (center), Milky Way (upper right) and M33 (lower right) in a ~ 2 Mpc/h box (Box 64 - 186592), starting at redshift z=42. The colours represent the dark matter density. A similar movie for the gas density evolution can be found in the Gas-section. Visualized using
PMViewer.
