What’s up with the fourth dimension? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chuck Nice explore the dimensions, worldlines, and what it would mean to be 4D.
Learn about time and space and how we navigate through both. What would a 2D world be like for two-dimensional people? We break down what it's like for 3D beings to interact with the second dimension and what it would be like for 4D beings to interact with the third dimension. Plus, we discuss flying cars and whether we already have them.
