New 360° Narrowband Visualization

New 360° flythrough of a massive star forming cloud as it is being destroyed by newly born massive stars, forming spectacular, high density "pillars", similar to those observed.

New 360° Visualization

New 360° flythrough of our ``Anvil of Creation" simulation. This movie let's you freely look around inside a star forming molecular cloud and see jets, radiation, winds and supernovae in action!

New Visualization

Here is the latest visualization of the ``Anvil of Creation" simulation, the first simulation with jets, radiation, wind, and supernova feedback in concert. We upgraded our visualization code to allow 3D perspective flythroughs of the cloud. Watch the arxiv for the paper where we break down everything that happens here!

Tools of the
starforge

We invent a brand new framework for simulating giant molecular clouds and star cluster formation with all kinds of feedback, and find that it works pretty well!
