    Plane Space-time
AI Thread Summary
The discussion explores the concept of dimensions and their relationship to planes of existence, questioning whether a 4D object could perceive lower dimensions. It acknowledges that while some physical theories suggest the existence of more than three spatial dimensions, these dimensions are theorized to be compact and not observable in a practical sense. The idea of 4D beings existing in our universe is deemed unlikely, though it remains a possibility under different physical laws. The term "planes of existence" is considered ambiguous, with no inherent significance attributed to additional spatial dimensions compared to our familiar three. Overall, the conversation highlights the speculative nature of higher dimensions and their implications.

Hi guys.

Been thinking about this for quiet a while now and I just want to see if I can get any answers to it.


A 3D object is able to see 1,2 and 3D object right? (Within a reason, not saying we can easily see an electron)

And we know there has to be more than 3D (excluding time for now).

Could this mean that a 4D object is in a higher plane of existence and is able to easly see the lower planes?

Could dimentions have anything to do with Planes of existence??

please feel free to have your opinion

From what I understand, some physical theories posit the existence of more than three spatial dimensions, but it's not yet confirmed that such things really do exist. And even when such extra dimensions are posited, they are thought to be very small and "curled up," so it's not realistic to think some alien being could exist in such a space and observe us.

So it's most probably not true in our universe that 4D spatial beings exist, but could it be the case in principle, e.g. if perhaps the structure and/or laws of nature were different? I don't see why not.

As for "planes of existence," it depends on what you mean by that term. I don't think there would be anything terribly special about an extra spatial dimension, any more than there's anything terribly special about having three spatial dimensions instead of two.
 
Thanx for you reply :)
 

Thread 'Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?'

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...

Thread 'Our Beautiful Universe - Photos and Videos'

This thread is dedicated to the beauty and awesomeness of our Universe. If you feel like it, please share video clips and photos (or nice animations) of space and objects in space in this thread. Your posts, clips and photos may by all means include scientific information; that does not make it less beautiful to me (n.b. the posts must of course comply with the PF guidelines, i.e. regarding science, only mainstream science is allowed, fringe/pseudoscience is not allowed). n.b. I start this...
