Aurora is one of the world’s first exascale supercomputers, able to perform over a quintillion calculations per second. Housed at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF), a Department of Energy Office of Science user facility, its high computing speed and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities enable science that is impossible today.

As one of the world’s fastest supercomputers, Aurora gives the global science community a powerful new research tool with unprecedented abilities for simulations, AI, and data analysis. Aurora powers breakthroughs in science and engineering, drives advances in technology, and boosts the nation’s innovation infrastructure.

Built in partnership with Intel and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Aurora accelerates discoveries in some of the world’s most pressing challenges, from climate and materials science to energy storage and fusion energy.
