Tesseract?? As I read Wrinkle in Time, I’m lost on each dimension but especially the fifth where time and space FOLD? HELP me understand?
In: Planetary Science
It’s a way of visualizing four-dimensional space in the third-dimension — a cube within a cube. If you think of each spot within the inner cube as a specific point in space, you can sort of get an idea about how four-dimensional space works by thinking of the inner cube’s location in the outer cube as an additional parameter to identify a specific point in space.
It’s worth emphasizing a tesseract is not a four-dimensional representation, it’s a three-dimensional representation of four-dimensional space.
