Scientific paper

Understanding how galaxies are made is one of the great unsolved problems in cosmology. Last year, a team from the Institute for Computational Cosmology at Durham University took part in the Royal Society's Summer Science Exhibition, with a remit to explain the latest research on galaxy formation to the public. The centrepiece of our exhibit was a stereoscopic movie called Cosmic Cookery. Here I recount how the movie takes the audience on a 3-D tour of the universe and back to the Big Bang, explaining our current ideas about how galaxies are built.
