Summary

[edit]
Description

Made myself with Mathematica 5.1, Created by finding radial coordinates of a hexagon map, then modifying the radial coordinate by treating the original coordinates as rapidity, and finding the velocity associated with it. For other images similar to this one, see Arthur Milne, http://world.std.com/~mmcirvin/milne.html http://www.mcescher.com/Gallery/recogn-bmp/LW434.jpg . The shape is sometimes called a Lobachevskian, after Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky, who did research in nonEuclidian Space. To the contrary, Milne described this as a matter distribution existing in Euclidian Space, much as planets and other spheres do.
