The four dimensions of the universe sre Quaternions: w + Ix +Jy + Kz where (w,x,y,z) are real numbers and the I,J and K are vectors as defined by William Rowan Hamilton, I2 = J2 = K2 = IJK = -1. Thus there are three vector dimesnions and one real dimension. Space dimensions are measured in meters.

The real dimension w, can be related to time thru a speed variable such as the speed of light, w=ct. Time is a real variable not a vector variable like the three space dimensions.

WHAT IS ALL THE THINGS IN THE UNIVERSE?

The universe encompasses everything that exists, including all matter, energy, planets, stars, galaxies, and cosmic structures, as well as the physical laws and forces that govern them. It contains both visible elements, like celestial bodies, and invisible components, such as dark matter and dark energy. The universe is vast and continually expanding, with an estimated age of about 13.8 billion years. Ultimately, it represents the entirety of existence and the complex interactions within it.


Will we ever find the edge of the universe?

For now, it isn't clear whether there such a thing as the "edge of the Universe" even EXISTS.


Distinguish between a celestial object and the universe?

When seen from some other part of our galaxy (which WE have named The Milky Way) our solar system would appear to be a celestial system. Any star with surrounding stars or planets is considered to be a "celestial system". Even this or other galaxies are considered to be "celestial systems".


Is heaven outside the universe?

The concept of heaven varies widely across different religious and philosophical beliefs, and its existence outside the universe is often a matter of personal interpretation. Some traditions view heaven as a transcendent realm beyond physical reality, while others see it as a state of being or consciousness. Scientifically, the universe is defined by physical laws and dimensions, making the idea of a non-physical heaven outside it a metaphysical question rather than a scientific one. Ultimately, whether heaven exists outside the universe remains a matter of faith and perspective.

What is the entire physical universe in science?

The entire universe means everything everywhere. The cosmos is another word for the entire physical universe. So that means everything on Earth, in the Solar System, the stars, the galaxies, the dust in space, the so-called dark matter, in fact everything that exists.


Where did the time and place take in a corner of the universe?

The concept of time and place exists everywhere in the universe, not just in a specific corner. Time is a universal concept that governs the progression of events, while place refers to the physical location within the universe where events occur. These are fundamental components of our understanding of existence and reality.

What the entire universe called?

The universe is the term used to describe all of space, time, matter, and energy that exists. It includes planets, stars, galaxies, and everything that we can observe or detect through scientific methods.


What does most matter in the universe exist in?

Most matter in the universe exists in the form of dark matter and dark energy, which are currently not fully understood by scientists. These two components make up the majority of the universe's mass-energy content, with ordinary matter (protons, neutrons, electrons) making up only a small percentage.


Does Gravity exist in entire universe?

Yes, gravity exists throughout the entire universe. It is a fundamental force that acts between masses, influencing the motion of celestial bodies, from planets and stars to galaxies and clusters. Gravity governs the structure and dynamics of the universe, playing a crucial role in the formation of cosmic structures and the behavior of objects in space.


What is space and everything in it called?

Space, as in the vast expanse that includes galaxies, stars, planets, and other celestial objects, is referred to as the universe. The universe encompasses all of space, time, matter, and energy. It is the totality of everything that exists, including both observable and unobservable components.

Why can't anything be disconnected from the universe?

The universe is commonly defined as all the time, space, matter, and energy that exist. It does not make sense to ask how something exists outside of what exists. If something exists, it, the space it occupies, and the time it exists in are all a part of the universe by definition.


Is the universe larger than the asteroid?

Yes. The universe is everything that exists.
