  2. Static universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_universe

    In cosmology, a static universe (also referred to as stationary, infinite, static infinite or static eternal) is a cosmological model in which the universe is both spatially and temporally infinite, and space is neither expanding nor contracting. Such a universe does not have so-called spatial curvature; that is to say that it is 'flat' or ...

  3. Einstein's static universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein's_static_universe

    Einstein's static universe, aka the Einstein universe or the Einstein static eternal universe, is a relativistic model of the universe proposed by Albert Einstein in 1917. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Shortly after completing the general theory of relativity , Einstein applied his new theory of gravity to the universe as a whole.

  4. Tired light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tired_light

    For example, in a static universe with tired light mechanisms, the surface brightness of stars and galaxies should be constant, that is, the farther an object is, the less light we receive, but its apparent area diminishes as well, so the light received divided by the apparent area should be constant.

  5. Flatness problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatness_problem

    The local geometry of the universe is determined by whether the relative density Ω is less than, equal to or greater than 1. From top to bottom: a spherical universe with greater than critical density (Ω>1, k>0); a hyperbolic, underdense universe (Ω<1, k<0); and a flat universe with exactly the critical density (Ω=1, k=0). The spacetime of ...

  7. Ergosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergosphere

    This is because world lines change from being time-like outside the static limit to being space-like inside it. [5] It is the speed of light that arbitrarily defines the ergosphere surface. Such a surface would appear as an oblate that is coincident with the event horizon at the pole of rotation, but at a greater distance from the event horizon ...

    The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature is a non-fiction book by C. S. Lewis.It was his last book and deals with medieval cosmology and the Ptolemaic universe.

  9. Cosmological principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_principle

    In modern physical cosmology, the cosmological principle is the notion that the spatial distribution of matter in the universe is uniformly isotropic and homogeneous when viewed on a large enough scale, since the forces are expected to act equally throughout the universe on a large scale, and should, therefore, produce no observable inequalities in the large-scale structuring over the course ...
