contents We review aspects of the Hartle-Hawking no boundary geometry in the context of slow roll inflation. We give an analytic approximation to the geometry and we explain the rationale for the proposal. We also explain why it gives a prediction for the curvature of the universe that is in disagreement with observations and give a quick review of proposed ways to resolve that disagreement.
