Summary

Description
English: Topology helps to think about the w:Twin paradox in the Wikiversity:Special relativity and steps towards general relativity course. Spacetime is shown in the frame of the rightmoving twin, for whom space is cut/paste with a temporal offset, but "rolled up" with each spacetime event only shown once. The temporal offset implies that a line of constant time spirals infinitely.
