Curvature and the Robertson-Walker metric

A homogeneous, isotropic space is positively curved, flat or negatively curved, detectable from inside by large triangles whose angles sum to 180 degrees plus or minus 57.3 A / R^2; the Robertson-Walker metric combines a(t) and k, and today R exceeds about 96 Gpc.
