Scientific paper
We provide an informal discussion of pattern formation in a finite universe.
The global size and shape of the universe is revealed in the pattern of hot and
cold spots in the cosmic microwave background. Topological pattern formation
can be used to reconstruct the geometry of space, just as gravitational lensing
is used to reconstruct the geometry of a lens.
