The compass of inertia is shown to coincide with the involuted geodesic of the closed manifold and predicts a cosmological redshift for distant events. Other cosmological criteria of antimatter imbalance, the microwave background and nucleogenesis are satisfied in a natural way. The role of black holes in steady-state circulation, universal self-similar symmetry and the need to reinterpret astronomical data in hyperspace are discussed.en© 2010 Physics Essays PublicationChronometric redshiftRotating-universe solutionAntimatterRed shiftCosmologyThe universe in perspectivePreprint Article
