The Theory of Hyperspace
From Hyperspace by Dr. Michiu Kaku
According to this theory, before the Big Bang, our cosmos was actually a
perfect ten-dimensional universe, a world where interdimensional travel
was possible. However, this ten-dimensional universe "cracked" in two,
creating two separate universes: a four- and a six- dimensional universe.
The universe in which we live was born in that cosmic cataclysm. Our
four-dimensional universe expanded explosively, while our twin
six-dimensional universe contracted violently, until it shrank to almost
infinitesimal size. This would explain the origin of the Big Bang. If
correct, this theory demonstrates that the rapid expansion of the
universe was just a rather minor aftershock of a much greater cataclysmic
event, the cracking of space and time itself. The energy that drives the
observed expansion of the universe is then found in the collapse of
ten-dimensional space and time. According to this theory, the distant
stars and galaxies are receding from us at astronomical speeds because of
the original collapse of ten-dimensional space and time.
This theory predicts that our universe still has a
dwarf twin, a companion universe that has curled up into a small
six-dimensional ball that is too small to be observed.
