wait

2019-10-11 03:31:52 UTC  

really?
'

2019-10-11 03:31:53 UTC  

and not bent like a rubber sheet

2019-10-11 03:31:59 UTC  

flat in 3 dimensions ofcourse

2019-10-11 03:32:04 UTC  

Euclidian

2019-10-11 03:32:08 UTC  

Like fr?

2019-10-11 03:32:20 UTC  

i didn't think that analogy worked

2019-10-11 03:32:23 UTC  

but oh well

2019-10-11 03:32:24 UTC  

the circumference of a circle is always C = 2 pi R

2019-10-11 03:32:26 UTC  

yeah, tis flat

2019-10-11 03:32:27 UTC  

Wait you said flat in 3 dimensions

2019-10-11 03:32:32 UTC  

we're flat spacers

2019-10-11 03:32:42 UTC  

I guess so

2019-10-11 03:32:47 UTC  

Wait

2019-10-11 03:32:52 UTC  

If space flat

2019-10-11 03:32:57 UTC  

If space is positively curved, then C < 2 pi R

2019-10-11 03:32:59 UTC  

Why am I not flat

2019-10-11 03:33:04 UTC  

the existence of dark energy gives an even higher likeliness of it being flat

2019-10-11 03:33:05 UTC  

if space is negatively curved, then C > 2 pi R

2019-10-11 03:33:33 UTC  

that really warps my mind

2019-10-11 03:33:35 UTC  

Ok but when you say space flat

2019-10-11 03:33:42 UTC  

Do you really mean as flat as paper

2019-10-11 03:33:43 UTC  

how flat the universe had to be when it was small in order for it to still be flat now

2019-10-11 03:34:40 UTC  

so I'm talking geometry

2019-10-11 03:34:58 UTC  

Sort of

2019-10-11 03:35:00 UTC  

and with that, black holes are not "holes"

2019-10-11 03:35:16 UTC  

How

2019-10-11 03:35:31 UTC  

they're just called that way because they eat up all the light that comes their way

2019-10-11 03:35:34 UTC  

They are “wells”

2019-10-11 03:35:37 UTC  

they look like a 'black hole'

2019-10-11 03:35:40 UTC  

in space

2019-10-11 03:36:14 UTC  

if you line up R number of meter sticks from the center of a black hole to its event horizon, and then measure the circumference of the event horizon you still end up with C = 2 pi R

2019-10-11 03:36:25 UTC  

But they holes tho

2019-10-11 03:36:28 UTC  

If space is flat than its infinite. If it’s curved, then it’s probably a closed system

2019-10-11 03:36:33 UTC  

whoa

2019-10-11 03:36:39 UTC  

Yoooo

2019-10-11 03:36:44 UTC  

why *are* black holes round?

2019-10-11 03:36:52 UTC
