cosmological parameters; early-universe models;
standard cosmological model; teaching.
* 1905 situation: There
is no galaxy other than the Milky Way, in which stars are distributed
with no special pattern; Then there are those funny-looking nebulae,
different from star clusters or clouds of hot gas.
* 1920s: Shapley-Curtis
debate [@ NASA page]; Some distant objects behave as if they are moving away fast.
* 1930 models: G
Lemaître (relativistic, homogeneous, expanding, constant mass,
increasing, r); E A Milne (Euclidean, homogeneous and isotropic,
expanding); F Zwicky (non-expanding); Hubble favoured Lemaître.

Various Models and Related Issues
> s.a. generalized theories [modified gravity].
* Models used: The
standard model uses a FLRW metric, but other models use Bianchi spacetimes
to model anisotropy, or inhomogeneous ones.
