hyperspaces
Higher dimensional realms
Hyperspaces is the plural of hyperspace.
In science fiction, hyperspace is an alternative dimension or realm that allows faster-than-light travel by bypassing normal space: The ship jumped into hyperspace.
In mathematics, hyperspace refers to space of more than three dimensions.
The science fiction sense dominates everyday usage.
