|
|
|
|
– |
Geodesics
are “world-lines” of galaxies and
|
|
|
do
not intersect except at a singular point in
|
|
|
the
past. Weyl’s idea predates Hubble’s
law.
|
|
|
– |
Fundamental
observers on each world line,
|
|
|
each
with standard clock measuring cosmic
|
|
|
time
from that singular point.

|
location in the universe.”
