just because u can't imagine a 4th axis dosen't mean its not there. sheesh. the same goes for an Nth axis.

string teory tells us that there can be up to 9-dimensions but some can be so small that we can't see them or feel them... some axis might come up when reaching speeds near C(speed of light in vacum, 186,000m/h)... also studies show that the universe is shaped like a doughnut.... imagine a piece of paper.... connect two of the oppopsite sides togagher... this tell us that if we go of one edge we will reapear on the other... you chould have a tube.. now connect the other opposite sides.... of the tube and you will get a doughnut.... therfore... if you were to go on off one edge you would reapear on the opposite side.... scientist now believe the universe is finite.... they think were the only galaxy and when we look out were seeing different views of our galaxy... like if your in between to panes of mirrors.. you see infinite selves..... i hope his helped some of youze... some how

credits go to Stephen Hawking for his contribution to science...

Actually recent research show that strings may need 10 dimensions, the 9 dimensions was just an estimate. The hidden dimensions are small, and are described as "curled up". Eg. Viewing a garden hose from a distance, one may describe it as being 1 dimensional, to describe the position of anything on the garden hose, you only need to give the left or right position. Upon closer examination, one sees the garden hose actually has another 'curled up' dimension, and now to describe the position of an object on its surface, you'd need to give horizontal coordinates AND its position on the curled up dimension. The specific shapes of the 'curled up' dimensions are not known. 2 dimensions can be curled up to a sphere shape, or a donut shape. As for the universe being a donut shape, I've never heard of that. But research shows that 6 dimensions can be 'curled up' into something called a calabi-yau space, or calabi-yau shape. But thats complex math that is beyond me.

Here's a 2D image trying to represent the 6 dimensional calabi-yau space

WOW! I've been trying for weeks just to get a 3D cube to rotate. Man I feel stupid now. Well I will keep trying. That is some amazing stuff. wow. I am just so blown away Shocked . Great job!

I know I may be asking a lot but would it be possible for someone to comment that code so that I may be able to understand it a little better? It would an amazing help to me if you could. Thanx

Ok listen professors all over the world have concluded that we live in a three dimensional world hence the fact that any figure you can imagine be defined by three axis... the only other argument is that the fourth dimension is time which is still unreasonable to my standards. If you claim you have a four dimensional object it can still be defined using the three axis x,y,z don't be stupid Evil or Very Mad


They do?

That's crazy! The multiple dimensions thing.

What if aliens live in the 6th dimesion, and one day when scientists figure out that aliens have been with us for billions of years, every1 will freak. Shocked

I am so getting those universe books. What if I discover the next dimesions?? OMG....
