Evolution of the Universe

This movie shows how the dark matter that comprises 90% of the matter in our Universe evolves as time goes by, collapsing into filaments and clusters.
The movie starts when the Universe was just 16 million years old, and ends today, 13.7 billions years later. During this period of time, the Universe expands 100 times, but since we sort of 'zoom out' at the same rate, this does not show. The final size of the box is approximately 100 million lightyears (about 1000 the size of a typical galaxy).
