Where & what is the 5th dimension?

[3rd_gear_Ted]

Been reading stuff about the universe and ya got to wonder about a 5th dimension?
What say you about humans ever figuring it out in a few generations?
What would it mean for the future?
The advent of AI pounding away 365/24/7 to get an answer gives me faith

Dark matter is stuff in space that has gravity, but it is invisible and isn’t like anything else we know about. Dark matter makes up about 27% of the universe. Dark energy makes up roughly 68% of the universe. We don’t know much about dark energy either, but we do know there is a lot of it. Together, dark matter and dark energy make up almost 95% of our entire universe. The rest – everything on Earth, everything ever observed with all of our instruments, all matter we understand – adds up to less than 5% of the universe.

The size of the solar system, much less the size of the galaxy and the universe is just is just not comprehensible by most.

I always thought the 5th through 11th dimensions were purely mathematical in nature. Due to the limitations of our physical 4 dimensions, I'm not sure we can experience 5 through 11.

Ditto.

Vaguely related note, I thought "Flatland" was a really cool explanation/visualization/story.

It is a very cool place!

I believe the Fifth Dimension was a too-pop group from the late '60s.

LMAO!

It is, I'm certain.

While we're alive on this earth using a human derived math construct I agree.
Maybe the other side has the answer and we already know what song will be playing.

that's where it gets interesting and something I think about now and again including my theory on the conservation of the soul in the same vein as mass and energy. The soul could very well be an artifact of or manifestation of the 5th or another dimension in our 4D world.

When Tabs gets back from there we can ask him.

Mr. Castellino (the music teacher) rehearsed us hard to sing that at our 8th grade graduation at Pine Grove Intermediate in 1969. We sounded good.

A recommended read.

I think Prince explains it well.

Humans can perceive a VERY narrow frequency range by natural ability, and a bit more with technology, but overall a very VERY tiny sliver of what's out there. We don't even know all what's out there.

The ability to perceive these higher frequency are the higher dimensions.

Some believe we are not a body with a soal, but a soal with a body. Once the body is used up, the soal remains but vibrates in a higher dimension. Then what?

Jeeeesh, I have enough trouble trying to find my sox. Now I have to look for a dimension?

Sox are in Boston. Come visit!

Maybe the 5th dimension is where all the 10mm sockets go!

I completely agree that we are a soul with a body, one that is conserved in the same way as mass and energy are. But have also postulated that if you could separate the wave-particle duality of light and maybe break the first law of thermodynamics, that could open so many doors and allow a peek into new areas of physics that are closed to us now. Another discussion but I would like to link them some day.
