How Can the Universe Be Flat?

The video explores how matter distorts spacetime, a concept central to Einstein's general relativity. It discusses the universe's geometry, which can be flat, positively curved, or negatively curved, and how this is determined by the universe's matter and energy content. The video explains the critical density needed for a flat universe and how current measurements suggest our universe is flat. It also delves into the universe's potential fates, influenced by dark energy, including scenarios like the big crunch or big bounce.
