Emergence

How can the simplest elements of the Universe bring into being the amazingly complex realities that surround us? Use this application to see how matter is organized, starting from a few elementary particles, to form highly intricate living systems. Atoms, molecules, organisms, ecosystems… Explore how matter is organized in different levels and marvel at their emerging properties! This application complements and expands on the concepts in the Emergence film presented at the ASTROLab in Parc national du Mont-Mégantic.
