    Hyperspace and a Theory of Everything

    What lies beyond our 4 dimensions?
    By Michio Kaku

    When
    I was a child, I used to visit the Japanese Tea Garden in San
    Francisco. I would spend hours fascinated by the carp, who lived in a
    very shallow pond just inches beneath the lily pads, just beneath my
    fingers, totally oblivious to the universe above them.

    I would ask myself a question only a child could ask: what would it be like to be a carp?
