Curvature of the Universe

Karl Schwarzschild: On the Permissible Degree of Curvature of Space, Vierteljahresschrift der astronomischen Gesellschaft, 35. Jahrgang, 1900

How great can the curvature of space be without astronomers having to notice its effects? The actual curvature of space is much less than Schwarzschild presumed.
