This program is a demo to find cosmic voids. The database used for this project is the Millennium Simulation Project and uses SQL queries to get information related to galaxies at redshift = 0. Further extensions of this project can be done such as speed improvements, better algorithms on finding voids, and general code quality.

This project used the VIRGO Database. This is only a tiny subset of the full millennium-run simulation. Access to the full database will have to be requested manually.

1. Clone this repository
2. pip install requirements.txt

This work uses the implementation from halos2gal_wSQL to quer the Millennium databases.
