Magnetic Monopole ————————————— The  magnetic monopole  objection was raised in the late 1970s.  Grand unified theories  predicted  topological defects  in space that would manifest as  magnetic monopoles . These objects would be produced efficiently in the hot early universe, resulting in a density much higher than is consistent with observations, given that no monopoles have been found. This problem is also resolved by  cosmic inflation , which removes all point defects from the observable universe, in the same way that it drives the geometry to flatness. [116] Flatness problem The overall  geometry of the universe  is determined by whether the  Omega cosmological parameter  is less than, equal to or greater than 1. Shown from top to bottom are a  closed universe  with positive curvature, a  hyperbolic universe  with negative curvature and a  flat universe  with zero curvature. The  flat...
