; Curvature Landmarks
: '''Einstein's General Relativity''' → The proof that gravity is not a "force" but the curvature of Non-Euclidean spacetime.
: '''GPS Satellites''' → These must use Non-Euclidean math to account for the Earth's curve and relativistic time shifts.
: '''The Shape of the Universe''' → Astronomers are still measuring light from the Big Bang to see if the whole universe is flat, spherical, or hyperbolic.
: '''Coral Reefs & Kale''' → Nature often grows in Hyperbolic shapes to maximize surface area in a small space.
