I've been playing with universe creation.

I created 3d versions of Star field (sort of like our neighborhood), Globular cluster, Lens galaxy, type Sc spiral and Open cluster.

Looking at the Milky way, it is about 100,000ly in diameter and about 1000yr thick. Scaling that down by a factor of 100 yields a galaxy 1000 ly in diameter and 10 ly thick. Close enough to 2d to meet strategic objections.

I'm going to experiment with expansion in a 230 ly radius sphere with about 100,000 stars. Should be real lively Smile




No trees were harmed in the making of this sig. However, many electrons were terribly inconvenienced
