Show summary

For many centuries it was believed that only classical Euclidean geometry could provide a correct way of mathematically representing the universe. █████████████ ██████████ ████ ████ ██ ███████ ████ █ ██████████████ ██ ███ ████████ █████████ █████████████ ████████ ██ ████ ████ ██████ ██ ██████████ ███████ █████ ██ ██████████ ███████ ██ █████ ████ █ ██████████████ █████████ ███ ████████████ ██████ ████ ██ ███ ████ ██████ ████████ ██ ██████████ ██ █████████

Summary

Traditionally people believed only classical Euclidean geometry could correctly represent the universe mathematically. However, scientists now believe that non-Euclidean geometrical representations of the universe are much more useful. In fact, non-Euclidean representations underly the cosmological theory most widely accepted by scientists.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

Modern scientists do not believe that classical Euclidean geometry is the only method for representing the universe mathematically.
