With positive curvature, zero cosmological constant and radiation density ρ0​a−4 in units 8πG=1, A=ρ0​/3​. The scale factor is positive for 0<τ<π, reaches its maximum at π/2, and has a Big Crunch at conformal time π or proper time 2A. This complements the closed matter-dominated Friedmann solution.
