Is Space Flat
Space can be flat even if spacetime isnt.
Is space flat. Since the universe is flat now it must have been flat in the past when the universe was an incredibly dense singularity. Moreover when they talk about the flatness of space cosmologists are referring to the large scale appearance of the universe. Mass also has an effect on the overall geometry of the universe. That means that if you have two parallel lines exte.
The universe has all sorts of deformations in space time where it varies from the perfectly flat. Such 3 dimensional space is locally modeled by. This feature is not available right now. Any place where theres mass or energy theres a corresponding bending of space time thats.
Even the asteroid belt lies in a flat plane. David says that in fact the way we ask questions gives away our tendency to treat math as physical. Space is almost flat in a 3d or actually 4d sense. The curvature is a quantity describing how the geometry of a space differs locally from the one of the flat spacethe curvature of any locally isotropic space and hence of a locally isotropic universe falls into one of the three following cases.
A drawn triangles angles add up to 1800 and the pythagorean theorem holds. Overall curvature of space closed universe top open universe middle and flat universe bottom. The origins of our solar system. Please try again later.
Is space full of it. Other galaxies billions of light years away are oriented in a similar way. This is not a strange exception of our solar system either. The density of matter and energy in the universe determines whether the universe is open closed or flat.
Space is almost flat. To put it succintly. People answering this question seem to be finding the question funny like if it was a question made by a flat earther.
