This project will represent a significant contribution in the context of Australian numerical astrophysics tackling fundamental questions in the field of galaxy formation and evolution. It will address questions that relate to our very existence, through trying to understand the formation of our Milky Way galaxy and the Local Group in which it resides. It will `value add' to the large investment made in optical/radio telescope facilities in this country, by focussing on data obtained from these telescopes. The animations produced from the project's simulations provide a clear and graphic way of conveying the results of the study to the public, and hence exciting and educating them about this important area of astronomy.

该项目将在这方面作出重大贡献。 澳大利亚数值天体物理学解决基本问题， 星系的形成和演化它将解决问题 与我们的存在相关的，通过尝试理解 我们银河系的形成和它所在的本星系群 居住。它将通过侧重于数据，为该国在光学/射电望远镜设施方面的大量投资“增值”。 从这些望远镜中得到的。制作的动画 项目的模拟提供了一个清晰和图形的方式来传达 研究的结果向公众，因此令人兴奋和教育 这是天文学的重要领域。
