Twisted Topological Universes

Consider the complexities of topological surfaces. For example, a Mobius strip is non-orientable, which means that left and right switch as you move around it. Go deeper into this and other paradoxes, and learn how to determine the shape of the planet on which you live; after all, it could be a cube or a torus!
