|content=Q: Is a “Harald trumpet” expanding while resting on a shelf? | |||
A: No. It just sorta sits there. Neither growing nor shrinking. | |||
Q: Well then, is the cross-sectional circumference of its surface expanding as you travel down its tubing length from mouthpiece to bell? | |||
A: Yes. | |||
Q: Do mathematicians have an intrinsic way to describe this without having to artificially locate the trumpet in any particular place, or do they have to have it sit in a three dimensional space? | |||
A: They use something called a Riemannian metric (or [[(Pseudo-)Riemannian Geometry|Pseudo-Riemannian metric]]) so they can study the trumpet as having a curved 2 dimensional surface without having to stick the trumpet artificially in a three dimensional space as in the picture. | |||
Q: So is that the confusion? It’s just bad language? | |||
A: Yes. The Universe is not expanding. The size of its cross-sections as measured by the intrinsic Riemannian volume, is what is expanding as you travel down its tube from the Big Bang (mouthpiece) towards the present (the bell). | |||
Q: How can that be?? I was just watching Professor X and he said “The universe…” | |||
A: I don’t know what to tell you. Sorry. | |||
