-//We don't really calculate the trajectories of satellites//,​ rather we are quantifying the end-to-end performance of the [[https://​de.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Euclid_(Weltraumteleskop)|Euclid (2022) space telescope]] at measuring the effect of dark energy in the Universe. This involves producing a virtual universe from computer simulations that matches as closely as possible the real Universe. We use both the national supercomputer in Lugano (CSCS) as well as our own in-house clusters in order to do this. The article describes a bit what it means to be a **Computational Scientist** in the field of astrophysics.+//We don't really calculate the trajectories of satellites//,​ rather we are quantifying the end-to-end performance of the [[https://​de.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Euclid_(spacecraft)|Euclid (2022) space telescope]] at measuring the effect of dark energy in the Universe.
