For a timelike geodesic moving in the direction with and , spatial translation symmetry gives . Proper-time normalization then gives
The geodesic with nonzero conserved spatial momentum reaches after the finite past proper timeThis is incompleteness of the expanding coordinate patch, whose geodesics extend smoothly in global de Sitter spacetime; it is not a curvature singularity.
