PyOpenGL/OpenGL Generating Cosmic NBodys

In summary, the conversation is about creating a Universe Simulator and the challenge of generating dark matter webs in the simulation. The desired effect is for the particles to slowly move towards each other to form a web, similar to the image provided. The person is seeking help and examples of how this can be accomplished, preferably using c/c++ or python. They have shared a progress picture of their current work and have identified the key issue as creating a force between the particles to attract them towards each other."

I am working on a Universe Simulator. I'm stuck on creating the dark matters webs of the universe that look like this: http://www.mpa-garching.mpg.de/galform/data_vis/sim3dnew-highres.png I am generating the particles as solid spheres with the radius of 0.5 . How can I make the particles slowly move toward each other as demonstrated in the picture above to form "webs" of these particles? If anyone has any ideas or might have some examples of how this can be done that would be great. Code in either c/c++/python would be great. (I have the first step of the picture done) Here is a picture of what I have done: http://i.imgur.com/uiTEa3j.png

The physics I am in need of help with is: Creating a force emitted by each particle to attract other particles toward it to form a web of the particles as show in the picture above.
