Announcing project AGORA: Ambitious comparison of computer simulations of galaxy evolution

A long-standing difficulty with supercomputer simulations of the evolution of galaxies has been getting consistent results among different codes (programs) and with actual observations, so simulated galaxies look like real galaxies. But reproducibility is one of the most elementary principles in scientific methods. An ambitious new multiyear project AGORA aims to understand and resolve such inconsistencies.
