The Tenth Dimension

July 12, 2006 on 12:16 am | In interesting | No Comments

Imagining the Tenth Dimension is a flash presentation of how we can imagine just that, the tenth dimension. The flash movie starts at 0, no dimension, and works its way through each dimension one-by-one up to the 10th, explaining how one would be able to imagine or if it were possible even experience each dimension.

In string theory, physicists tell us that the subatomic particles that make up our universe are created within ten spatial dimensions (plus an eleventh dimension of “time”) by the vibrations of exquisitely small “superstrings”. The average person has barely gotten used to the idea of there being four dimensions: how can we possibly imagine the tenth?

The flash presentation of Imagining the Tenth Dimension is is based of the book “Imagining the Tenth Dimension” by Rob Bryanton.
