In all seriousness...
I was watching a commercial advertising a new disposable product after I read half a book on the physical possibilities of time travel.. then I had this farfetched nearly practical Idea:

A world where Spacial Dimensions are made as commonly as cars.

[more correctly, The Idea came back...I had this Idea when I was about 9 while watching a string theory video, but lets not get into that... sweatdrop ]

Now, It is my own belief that a dimension can be expanded (or under some circumstances "made") by physical force(s) on their own accord.
According to string threory, there are supposedly (11) or more dimentions locked up in the crevases of energy strings. What if some how we could open the 3 precise dimensions on top of each other in a way that would create a separate, if not, linkable verse with its own rules for time.

I know, I know, Alot of this is "fuzzy"
But the possibilities of this are endless!
What if, while entering this new verse, moving one inch and re-entering our own verse would move you one mile?
Or perhaps and hour put into one nano second!

I think this is possible under the right conditions.
Discuss:



EDIT:Well, as described, I would Only wrap 3 spatial dimensions around.
That would recreate a similar world to our own, and in theory {at least mine} we would still abide by the same time laws.

Now as for the spatial features, in hope, they would be distorted compared to our own.
If we are lucky, they would be distorted in a way that makes a small distance traveled there a farther distance traveled here.
Some might argue that if the space time fabric is connected to our own at the cooresponding points, then any distance "felt" traveled there, would be equal here, so no gain is made.

Thats where the heavy massed shell comes in.
As far as I understand if you could build a shell around you that is about 3m wide with the same mass as jupider, space time fabric around the shell would be distorted while, you, on the inside would remain in the space time fabric at the time the shell was built. Now imagine opening that distorted dimension, and entering it in a shell much larger. You could travel in your own spacetime fabric, and your distance would be that much farther. To re-enter your world at the new point, you would need to pass though both sets of dimensions, because you would have dragged part of your verse with you while traveling.

this could also work the other way if you don't mind detroying a few galaxies due to long-term exposure to such a great mass xd

ADD:

Another problem, I know, is that expnding a 4th (and 5th and 6th) spacial dimension to that size might not be stable. I understand that it is possible to expand such a dimention with controlled forces if we could ever really look at a string.

But lets say hypothetically, we did manage to open one or more locked up dimentions.. is it possible to shrink them again?
I say it is due to the fact they were able to be expanded by controlled force,they can be mantained.

How do you expand a compactified dimension? I've never heard of the idea. Though, there is no evidence of higher dimensions whatsoever; however, we may find evidence of large extra dimensions at the LHC because I'm sure there will be some KK searches.

I know very little about the full workings of string theory [aside from how it really is not testable] but if you expand the hidden dimensions then surely they would be connected to the current 3+1 we perceive at every point in spacetime? The only reason we cannot see them now is because they are so small we are unable to "feel" them. If they would larger then the universe we "feel" would be unimaginably different: we could move in four or more spatial dimensions.

I'm just not too sure how your idea would work, you are connected to the original universe at every point, so unless movement through the x_0, x_1, x_2 and x_3 dimensions is somehow different at various x_4, x_5, etc. — which I would not suggest to be the case without good reason — then I don't know why you even need large extra dimensions.

I was once having a discussion with a friend of mine and, after a long conversation and many drawings and diagrams on the board, we came to the conclusion that OUR dimension is the minute one, and that it is surrounded by a huge, higher dimensional "bulk." Then we realized this was bulk theory (or brane cosmology) and had a good laugh.

A brane is a spatially extended object in string theory. I think that this would create an infinite loop system, in which lower dimensions are contained in a smaller brane surrounded by a larger, higher dimensional universe, which in turn is surrounded by a higher dimensional universe.

The idea of a brane is that is propagates out a p+1 (p is its dimension) world-volume through spacetime, meaning a "string" could merely be the continuation and eventual dissipation of these lower dimensions in our own.

Now, we know that two-dimensional math is not the exact same as three dimensional math. This would help explain why gravity is such a weak force as compared to the other forces. It is possible that gravity is merely the result of lower-dimensional physics going on.

From the way I see, and going off of your theory and what it would imply, "cracking open" another dimension is already happening, and the result is what is described above.

Yeah, VERY theoretical, I know. I don't even have any equations at all to back it up. Oh well, it's fun to speculate anyway.

Ok look nobody is taking into account that the energy needed for all of these dimensions going on. Next neuteral dimensions are passing like astrodes hit the atmoshere. As for "string", this you can be used as a tunnel. Partacals travel though "string", so a nuke size bome wouldn't go off. cause at the subatomc level, atomes are being ripped apart all time. so just by expanding the string you get a tunnel and find yourself in France or something.

I'd love to see Neko partake in this ;D


Dimesions. Strings. Energy loops.

Perhaps those higher dimesions would be the after-life. Heaven. Whatever you believe it to be.


In the paranormal communities I hang out in, those who can astral project usually can go into this other realm... (not the human-soul other realm afterlife)
there's things living there that HATE it if anyone outside their realm is there. As if they don't deserve to be there...
of course, there's a few exceptions. A few of them don't care.

Ghosts are commonly sighted. Maybe their energy, soul, whatever, is still too strongly linked to this dimesion area to "pass on" to the next dimesions?

I mean, telekinesis and other psychic mediums might even just be the result of the human mind having capabilities that connects to these other dimesions.

Who knows, right?

I have a hypothesis called, "Deja Vu". It has something to do with what you're talking about. You know, paranormal stuff and our twin brothers connecting through us. Pm if you want to know more.
