Author Topic: The 4th dimension.  (Read 10555 times)

unless the entire forum is composed of MIT professors.
No, just people very adept at google/wikipedia searches. They can read, copy and paste the info, but the real question is do they really understand? I'm no MIT grad, but what I know about the relationship between the 2nd and 3rd dimensions would be equivalent to the relation between the 3rd and 4th dimensions.

that's were you are wrong, i do not use Wikipedia i collect my knowledge from books and science channels

I do that as well as using wikipedia. Unfortunately, everything you have said in this thread was handicapped, so your method doesn't work.

I recently read Flatland, and if you're talking about a 4th visual dimension then it's quite possible that it is there (along with any number of other visual dimensions). The 4th dimension is perpendicular to the 3rd dimension. We either don't have the eyes built to see them, the brains that can interpret them, we're not in the right place to observe them or our universe is just not built that way.

This is what I've been saying.

Yay forums :D

I'll admit that I had no idea what was beyond the fourth demension, I always thought it was some kind of screwed up world, like they show in cartoons.

How come all of the handicapped stuff i said was proven?

time is a flat surface 2D dimension

we are traveling in time every second there for time travel is 100% possible because you are witnesing it every moment

I see.

You should check out Dr. Michio Kaku before you judge :)

Isn't 4th dimension time?

It depends on your definition of the 4th dimension. Time is time, 4th dimension is just a way to visualize its relationship to the world.

if time can be seen and touched i wonder what it'll feel and look like

I've watched the shows he's in and went back and read the article he wrote on time travel. I respect him and what he says. It doesn't change the fact that it's a popular understanding of it written in a format that people can understand without any background in the field and that you're using it to extrapolate things far beyond the scope of the media with no technical working knowledge of the math or science behind it.

It will feel like how light feels in space, you can't feel it, but it's there?

Kaku is my scientific idol

They all studied under Hawking, so ask him, I'm sure he'd know, no question about that.

But time travel is a very touchy subject as there is so much behind it: Alternate realities, parallel dimensions, ect. It's weird to the point that technically if we ever found out how to travel backwards in time, we'd cease to exist on this reality and yaddah yaddah. I watch too much Star Trek. lol

Hey guess what, I live in the same city as him. He's all over the documentaries, but there are two different versions of the fourth dimension. There is the spacial fourth dimension and the time fourth dimension. They are two different things, and apply in different cases. You're an idiot, stop pretending to have any sort of education.
