The relation between Kruskal and Schwarzschild coordinates is analogousto that between hyperboloid and de Sitter coordinates; the Kruskaldiagram is analogous to the hyperboloid diagram; and the crossing over ofhorizons in Kruskal space is analogous to the well-known crossing over of the particle horizon and the event horizon in cosmology.
