A higher dimension is exactly what it sounds like: a dimension that is different (higher) from length, width, and depth. Our world is in three dimensions, and a higher dimensional universe would have four or mroe dimensions.

How many dimensions do you see in when you look with one eye?

When you look through one eye or both eyes, it doesn't matter because the world that we know always has three dimensions; length, width, and height.The difference is that when you look through one eye your brain doesn't get as much information to be able to determine width or depth, which is considered the third dimension. It only gets information to see length and height. And, to see the fourth dimension, time, all you have to do is look at something with three dimensions ans wait for it to move. Movement involves time, so if you close one eye and look at things moving, you are actually seeing infour dimensions with only one eye!

Have scientists adopted names for the additional dimensions beyond the widely-accepted four dimensions?

Only mathematical ones. Time is 't', the usual spatial dimensions are x1, x2, and x3. When doing the math using spatial dimensions beyond those three -- like in string theory -- scientists refer to them as x4, x5, x6, etc.


Are there different dimensions in space and can you travel at the speed of light?

Yes, it is theorized that there are higher dimensions then the four we are familiar with. No, you cannot travel at the speed of light, no physical object that has mass can. However, that being said, you can, theoretically travel infinitely close to the speed of light which would, in turn, require an infinite amount of energy.
