MISCELLANEA Intuitions and Reasoning that Can Help in Coming to Know the Models of Closed Universes Constructed by Cosmology
Journal Title: Miscellanea Anthropologica et Sociologica - Year 2011, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
Within modern cosmology, the concept of closed universes is incomprehensible to many people. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to try and make this idea more understandable, using simple intuitions and reasoning. Perhaps, in such a way, the construction of closed models of the universe will become more intellectually transparent to the reader. To begin with, closed geometrical spaces will be introduced and subsequently, their applications within modern cosmology.
