Greenbelt MD (SPX) Apr 18, 2006 - NASA scientists said Tuesday they have
developed a new computer model that can simulate the gravitational waves
generated by merging black holes without crashing. The three-dimensional
simulations represent the largest astrophysical calculations ever performed on a
NASA supercomputer, the space agency said in a statement.
