Expansion of Space, not Spacetime
[edit]Space and time do form spacetime in general relativity, but it is a common misconception to talk about an expanding spacetime instead of an expanding space in cosmology, see
- Albert Einstein: The Expansion Of Space
- Dave Goldberg: Universal Misconceptions 1: Expanding Time
- Davis & Lineweaver: Expanding Confusion Page 5
- Leonard Susskind: Lecture Notes 8
- Leonard Susskind: Cosmology II
- Alan Guth: The Early Universe V
- The metric expansion of space
In an expanding space the distance between points grows with time, while an expanding spacetime would imply that even the duration between events would grow, which is discussed in non-mainstream theories like
but not in standard cosmology. Therefore all articles which confused space with spacetime were fixed.

For your correction of the "spacetime" issue and for the creation of animations that convey the comoving universe - To which I still have trouble conceptualizing, despite your animation.
I nonetheless, commend you. We need more clear thinkers like you. Boundarylayer (talk) 13:32, 4 February 2017 (UTC) |
