What is the shape of the universe? The question has baffled and obsessed humankind since civilization first gazed up towards the heavens. The world has yet to receive a satisfactory explanation. Now a new study hints at a possible answer. Contrary to the traditional interpretation, the study suggests the universe is finite and bears a rough resemblance to a soccer ball, or to put it more accurately, the universe looks like a 12-sided volume bounded by pentagons. Based on the new theory, a model has been made to help illustrate the alleged shape of the Universe. If proven by further evidence and inspection, the model would represent a major discovery about the nature of the cosmos.
"What makes the discovery exciting now is it’s not a matter of idle speculation," said Jeffrey Weeks, a US mathematician, "There’s real data to look at and there’s the great possibility of getting a definite answer." Weeks has announced hints that the Universe is actually relatively small, with a hall-of-mirrors illusion which tricks us into thinking that the space stretches on forever.
While studying cosmic background radiation observed by NASA’s Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe, Jeffrey Weeks, together with a team of French cosmologists, arrived at this new discovery. It is still in question whether the theory is correct. However, the idea itself is indeed appealing and inspiring.
