There seems to be a question whether the universe if flat or curved. The answer is very simple..the universe is both flat and curved. If you go very fast in one direction at eye level...you will return and see the back of your head. Because the universe is curved. But the flat part of the curved universe can easily be seen... if you look down, or go down you will quickly hit the floor of the universe...and if you go up, you can touch the top of the universe. But if you move at eye level straight, it curves. But here is the catch.. in order to get pass the curvature of the universe to get pass the curvature..where the universe is infinite, you need to get pass the curvature 'ring' of the universe. Just simply picture a medium size pizza (with pepperoni) inside a very large infinite size pizza flat box.
