Look at the link to 2 youtube videos I posted at the end of the first page. Its part 1 and 2. It explains about 11 dimensions.

That's just dumb. I need real scientific proof.

Ahahaha Flatland.

That line king thought there was only a line of existence. And the circles thought there was only Flatland.

Ergo, there are a billion million dimensions, we just have no idea about them.

Oh yeah, quick question/point/related discussion topic:
In Flatland, the residents saw in 1D (a line), the Lineland King saw in 0D (a point), and the sphere allowed the Square to see in 2D (a plane).
We have two eyes, and therefore see in a sense of 3D. Does this mean our brains process in 4D?

No, wait, I have another one:

As the sphere passed through Flatland, he was a line that became bigger than shrunk to nothing. What would someone passing in 4D through a 3D area look like?

If a light is shone on a three dimensional object, a two-dimensional shadow is cast. By dimensional analogy, light shone on a two-dimensional object in a two-dimensional world would cast a one-dimensional shadow, and light on a one-dimensional object in a one-dimensional world would cast a zero-dimensional shadow, that is, a point of non-light. Going the other way, one may infer that light shone on a four-dimensional object in a four-dimensional world would cast a three-dimensional shadow.

What could cast a 3D shadow? Discuss.

Here is a Tesseract

Re: The Fourth Dimiension

Technically speaking, if a 4D object is built, and it casts a 3D shadow, in our dimension it would be a real object rather than a shadow that we could step on.

For those who can't understand this, think kingdom hearts. Think of the heartless. They are shadows; 3D shadows  smile

Take a photo while leaving the lense open for a little longer. This captures the 4th dimention time. Shadows will be in 3D.(If they moved a little)

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

Re: The Fourth Dimiension

In physics and mathematics, a sequence of n numbers can be understood as a location in an n-dimensional space. When n = 4, the set of all such locations is called 4-dimensional Euclidean space.

Re: The Fourth Dimiension

Actually, Time is not a dimension. Dimension is a measurement of space. Time is not space, and you can't see the back of your head (except in very small universes). Anyway, I think that better understanding of dimensions higher than our (3D) may help us beat the speed of light barrier (purely hypothetical hyperspace).

Re: The Fourth Dimiension

I do not think that anything could cast a 3D shadow...
A shadow is simply like an are where the light does not reach, because something is in the way. And the 4th Dimension is time.

Re: The Fourth Dimiension

Actually, duration or time can't be represented as a dimension, rather as something that holds dimensions together. For something to exist, it has to have its position in multi-dimensional space and time.

It has position; it is EVERY position between were an object is and where it will be.
