Sažetak

We introduce a novel definition of a parabola into the framework of universal hyperbolic geometry, show many analogs with the Euclidean theory, and also some remarkable new features. The main technique is to establish parabolic standard coordinates in which the parabola has
the form xz = y^2. Highlights include the discovery of the twin parabola and the connection with sydpoints, many unexpected concurrences and collinearities, a construction for the evolute, and the determination of (up to) four points on the parabola whose normals meet.
