Flatness problem: Measurement, Standards & Products

The flatness problem (also known as the oldness problem) is a cosmological fine-tuning problem within the Big Bang model of the universe. Measurements find the current universe close to perfectly flat and expansion of the universe increases flatness. Consequently the early universe must have been exceptionally close to flat. In standard cosmology based…
