You forgot up and down, and diagonal. That's 7 dimensions thanks.

Stars attract each other through gravity. Gravity drops off as distances = Equations for how light moves through space - You end up with four dimensions. Quantum Physics Math/String theory (which I struggle with and seems always will) Attempts2 describe gravity and light in a one common theory -
10 maybe 11 dimensions. All those unseen extra dimensions

@previous (!OhBrie5EHg)Yep 3 Spatial dimensions plus time — is crazy wacko exotic enough. Alice in Wonderland:
“My dear, here we must run as fast as we can, just to stay in place. And if you wish to go anywhere you must run twice as fast as that.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
When we understand string theory, we will know how the universe began. It won't have much effect on how we live, but it is important to understand where we come from and what we can expect to find as we explore.
-Stephen Hawking

A dimension into what exactly?
When you say things like that people freak out, it is difficult to explain anything when they are in that state.
Who would you rather listen to; Somebody that is calm in the face of danger, OR: Somebody who flips their lid at the first mention of it?
