Hi @neiltyson. Euclidean is the geometry of earthly life, so "cosmically curved geometry" instead of non-Euclidean (elliptic & hyperbolic)?

@johnallenpaulos@neiltyson but non-euclidean geometry covers many things (reduced to 2 with symmetry) so addition name may be confusing. -
@Gelada@JohnAllenPaulos@neiltyson It's a category of geometries. Plus it's easier to say than Lobachevsky-Bolyai-Gauss geometry. -
@creatrixanima Doesn't Lobachevsky Bolyai and Gauss' work already have a single name "Hyperbolic"?
