For centuries, scientists, mathematicians, and philosophers have all been fascinated and perplexed by the notion of a fourth dimension. In our daily lives we work in three dimensions — length, width, and height. But the idea of throwing in an extra dimension is almost unimaginable. Some see the fourth dimension as an extension of time. While other mathematicians dive into abstract mathematics, connecting two points in space that would otherwise be impossible to connect. So, get ready to wrap your head around this mind-bending concept as we explore some abstract mathematics.

Understand The Dimensions:

To get a shot at comprehending the fourth dimension, let’s first understand what dimensions are. The first dimension is an infinitely long line, where an organism is limited to moving back and forth. Inhabitants of this dimension would perceive part of a three-dimensional object as a dot.

Moving to 2 dimensions, we get a square with infinite length of width and height. When organisms live in this dimension they can move side to side, forward and backwards. If there was a 3D…
