i hope they manage to prove some of this before i die! :)

this has been my thought all along. even our universe is a grain of sand... or slice of bread, lol.
and we'll eventually get off of our "Slice" of the universe, it's only a matter of time. inter-dimensional travel is the future.

i could read about it all day.
In November of this year, CERN and the Large Hadron Accelerator was supposed to fire up and start its research to validate super-symmetry, a fundamental step toward the validation of M-theory.
but i read a week ago that it's been pushed back until May 2008.
We generally think of our universe with 4 dimensions (X,Y,Z axis and time), but just look at this:
a render of Calabi Yau 10 dimensional geometry
the explanations for the Big Bang and Big Crunch are wicked cool

I find this very interesting... going to the book store to pick up some material.....

Here is a great series of videos on the universe and more on strings...
thanks for the link mate! when i have net access at home again i'll have to have a look :)

Looks 3D to me. :D

it's a projection duh...
besides, it's actually 2 D :o

There's only one dimension. The entirety of existence in a single point. That's us and everything. :)
But that doesn't lend very good credence to our need to create systems of measurement, using the common (and erroneous if there is actually no such entities as "beginning and end") denominators: length, height, width, duration.
All holographic reflections of the original point. Ah , we're all going to get in over our heads again as usual, the way it should be! :disbelief
And then there's the possibility that dimensions exist because we believe them to exist, and have reached a level of consciousness able to fathom them up at all... the more we dream and imagine, the more the universe itself fractures itself into those unbelievialities.
