Abstract
If our three-dimensional physical universe lies on the surface of a hypersphere then the galaxies rushing apart from a Big Bang on its surface might, when past half-way around it, be tending to come together again, as seems to have been observed. Also upwelling from gravitational sinks into the depths of the hypersphere might account for the clustering of galaxies observed.
