The Early Universe
What did our universe look like when it was young? This animated frame from a computer simulation shows how matter might have been distributed early on. The universe began remarkably smooth, with matter and light spread almost uniformly. Over time, gravity caused slight density variations to grow, leading to the large-scale structures we see today.
