higher dimension
Past normal space
A higher dimension is a spatial dimension beyond the three we directly perceive—length, width, and height.
In mathematics and physics, higher dimensions provide frameworks for describing phenomena that can't be captured in three-dimensional space: String theory proposes that reality has ten or eleven dimensions.
Popularly, higher dimensions evoke realms beyond ordinary perception, sometimes with mystical overtones: She claimed to receive messages from a higher dimension.
