Basic Assumptions Principle of Relativity: The laws of nature are the same everywhere and at all times The Cosmological principle: The universe is homogeneous and isotropic Space time is simply connected, can be filled with comoving observers (CO). Each CO performs local measurements of distance and time in it’s own frame of reference, locally flat. No global inertial frame. Cosmic time: synchronized clocks of COs in space at every given time.
