The Fifth Dimension
Welcome to the fifth dimension. Here a hypothesized spacetime framework may be lurking in the shadows of reality which could unify all four fundamental forces of nature—electromagnetism, gravity, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. No one knows for sure if hyperspace, space greater than the three dimensions we observe, truly exists or how many dimensions exist. On this episode, co-hosts Tal and Jared embark on a journey into the fabric of spacetime in an attempt to uncover the truth or at least find the breadcrumbs which could one day lead us to it.
