In simple, average Joe terms, string theory says that all the particles in the universe are really little "strings", rather then the conventional ball-shape they are normally thought of. Unlike the balls (or more accurately, points) which are zero-dimensional, strings are one-dimensional. This has some very interesting implications, but to explain them would evolve out stepping a "simple definition". String theory is known for uniting both the physical laws of the large (Einsteins general relativity- stars, planets, and people) and the small (quantum mechanics- subatomic particles), which were previously incompatible. Short for super sting theory, now known as M-theory. This answer explains only the very basics of string theory.

What would be the result of adding the fifth dimension to the other four in terms of space travel?
Well current superstring theory, requires that there be at least ten dimensions in the universe. However it does not explain why we are only able to observe four of these dimensions. Some versions of string theory require that there be at least 26 dimensions in the universe.So there are already more than the five dimensions you are curious about.
