Dimensions And Their Mystery.

Tonight I am going to tell you about dimensions.

Important
When I say 'dimension' you may think of something else which is an 'Alternate reality'.
Example: A world like this one, but for that traffic lights are purple, the people who are cool use a Mango computer, and the people who care about computers use a Doors computer. I have short hair and Dave wants to be a submariner. THAT is an alternate reality, not an alternate dimension (which as a term in of itself is slightly nonsensical). Also that concept is highly theoretical (In layman’s terms, it's not real).

A dimension is (more or less) the reality we exist in, divided into parts. Crazy scientist guys think that there may be over ten dimensions, but humans can perceive (and therefore name) only about three and a half.

Those are:

Length:

A line has length. It exists from point A to point B. It exists in one dimension.

Width:

A square has length and width. It exists in two dimensions.

Height:

A cube has length, width and height. It exists in three dimensions.

Now this is all probably quite familiar to you. This next part probably isn't though.

Time:
A tesseract has length, width, height, and a presence in time. It is the third wacky do-dad in the image above. It is to cube as cube is to square.

Time is the last dimension that humans can perceive, and with special training understand almost wholly.

The ultimate point of this is the question, what does the fifth dimension contain? We must exist in it, but we cannot see, feel, or think it up.

What else exists we cannot know? What mysteries float around us, unknown and unknowable? What strangeness do we breathe in daily?
