To learn more about black holes, computational astrophysicist Chi-kwan “CK” Chan is working to create the first moving image of one. CK creates simulations and compares them to observational data gathered at telescopes – but these don’t always match up. So he uses Codex to generate new algorithms to test. It would normally take him ten days to create ten new algorithms. With Codex, it takes just a few minutes, making previously impossible simulations possible. Learn how Codex is changing science in fundamental ways, and how it’s helping CK reach the edge of the universe.
