Not what I get. An infinite region of space is infinite by definition. Why would it be zero volume?

Will measurements ever be able to a stage to find that curvature? I assume you mean distant galaxies or will that be something else?

Is the data not pointing to a flat universe? Ω = 1 or very close to?

At mother's today doing some work.

My mother has one. Metal element at the bottom but the rest is some sort of heat resistant plastic. I will get an image.

I thought that was a British word. Mancunian even. Never heard that outside of Manchester.

There have been some popular articles on papers regarding the Hubble tension in the last few weeks, but this one had full access so I went for that. This study was independent of the CMBR and the standard candle Cepheid variables and SN measurements. Some EDIT A LOT of the technical aspects are...

It was my way of saying stay around. Monty hall messed me up till I got it. Then Dale introduced entropy and I realised I'm just a spectator again, which is fine. "A man's gotta know his limitations..."

That's nuts man. You have been here since 2007? Lived through the V50 years when he was a mentor? (I never experienced that but I was taken down multiple times when he retired) Phinds? A grammar error would put you in prison. Fresh? Just dividing something would get you a warning (joke, he was...

Honey bus.

This is beautiful. RIP Pete Dello.

This study uses data from the Gaia telescope launched in 2013 which measured stellar ages of stars greater than 12.5 gy. This set a lower limit on the age of the universe, if there are stars >12.5 gy then the universe cannot be younger than this. This impacts on the the Hubble constant, if...

Poll?

Yeah that makes sense.
