Abstract.
A new proof of Friedrich’s theorem on the existence and stability of asymptotically de Sitter spaces in 3 + 1 dimensions is given, which extends to all even dimensions. In addition we characterize the possible limits of spaces which are globally asymptotically de Sitter, to the past and future.
