gifThus we have obtained the Lorentz transformation for events on thex-axis. We
suppose a light-signal sent out from the origin of K at the time t= 0.
(2) The
magnitude ( radius ) of space is independent of time.
There does arise,
however, a strange difficulty. It follows from what has been said, that closed
spaces without limitsare conceivable.
at a somewhat greater distance from the
centre of the sunthan corresponds to its real position. This view is not in
harmony with the theory of Newton.
gifWe should thus have the solution of our
problem, if the constants aand b were known.
Itis in no way known how this
incongruity is to be overcome.

In that sense one can say, according to
Friedman,that the theory demands an expansion of space.

light-signal sent out from the origin of K at the time t= 0. It satisfies the
condition x2 - c^2t2 = x2 - c^2t2 .

At all events, a definite decision will be reached during the next

Is it possible to imagine a spherical

gifIf we call v the velocity with which the origin of K1 is
movingrelative to K, we then have eq.
The stellar universe ought to be afinite

Itpossesses a finite volume, which is
determined by its radius(2p2R3).

It may be mentioned that there is yet another kind of curved space:
