    0 references
    This short note establishes a version of the limit curve theorem in Lorentzian geometry for a converging sequence of spacetimes, making use of a recently introduced notion of Lorentzian Gromov-Hausdorff distance by \textit{J. Noldus} [Classical Quantum Gravity 21, No. 4, 839--850 (2004; Zbl 1055.83034)]. A comparison between the length of the limit curve with the lengths of curves in the sequence is deduced using the main result.
