Traffic moved slowly, and she saw nothing but other cars and a horizonless sky.

She always returns to the "landscape of dating" as her intended theme, but the landscape appears horizonless and the detours can be maddeningly circuitous.

Rothberg's gossamer VR installation, Water Without Wet (2020), situates the viewer in a virtual space defined by its 360-degree expanse of horizonless water.

His grandmother had immigrated to Miami from the Bahamas, and boat people appear frequently in his paintings, tiny specks in horizonless oceans awaiting something better.

In the opening section, we find ourselves literally at sea in a clip from Brazilian filmmaker Glauber Rocha's 1967 "Entranced Earth," showing, in aerial view, a swelling, glittering, apparently horizonless Atlantic Ocean.

I could picture the image in a gallery, and a viewer standing before it, at first wondering what she was even looking at, then noticing the tiny boat and grasping that the endless, horizonless muck was a landscape.

I stood next to a since-demolished Muslim day school, in the spongy state of horizonless perpetual hangover that was then my normal resting state, surrounded by neighbors I barely knew, speaking in languages I knew not at all.

Like Ellie Ga's spookily taciturn gelatin silver print, Remainder (2010), portraying four shovels standing in a grey, horizonless expanse of snow, Kendler's Underground Library and Brooks' Field Observations manifest an almost archaeological interest in the objects that humans leave behind.

You wanted to kill yourself, Bobby suspected, only when the access to any feeling at all, whether good or bad, was completely eroded, when you found yourself, as many poor souls did, mired upon an undifferentiatedly flat and horizonless plane of Unfeeling, bereft of access to any avenue of actual or potential emotional excitation.

The possibility of traversable wormholes in general relativity was first demonstrated in a 1973 paper by Homer Ellis and independently in a 1973 paper by K. A. Bronnikov. Ellis analyzed the topology and the geodesics of the Ellis drainhole, showing it to be geodesically complete, horizonless, singularity-free, and fully traversable in both directions. The drainhole is a solution manifold of Einstein's field equations for a vacuum spacetime, modified by inclusion of a scalar field minimally coupled to the Ricci tensor with antiorthodox polarity (negative instead of positive). (Ellis specifically rejected referring to the scalar field as 'exotic' because of the antiorthodox coupling, finding arguments for doing so unpersuasive.) The solution depends on two parameters: , which fixes the strength of its gravitational field, and , which determines the curvature of its spatial cross sections.
