Phosphenes<p>If a dimension is a degree of freedom then would time be half a dimension? So then we live in 3.5 dimensions?</p><p>You can move two ways in every spatial dimension, but only one way in time. You *do* have the freedom to change how fast you move forward in time, but not which direction. So it is a partial degree of freedom.</p><p>The fact that you can only go one way in time is pretty much the only thing that makes it different from a spatial dimension.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/time" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>time</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>space</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dimensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dimensions</span></a></p>

Hari Tulsidas<p>The concept of higher dimensions beyond the familiar three of space and one of time poses intriguing questions. If these dimensions exist, how are they structured? Theoretical frameworks like string theory suggest the presence of extra spatial dimensions, potentially compactified in complex internal spaces too small for direct observation. Exploring this could unlock a deeper understanding of fundamental forces and reconcile quantum mechanics with gravity. <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Physics</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Dimensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dimensions</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/StringTheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StringTheory</span></a></p>
