Notes

          Mid-afternoon. Doug G. sent you two relatively new UFO videos from China and it got you thinking (again) about how some UFO’s could be an abnormality, a fifth dimensional object slipping into our four dimensional space. You think of humans as three dimensional creatures holding two dimensions within the limits of mind (the process of thinking) only. Here is the question you asked your FB friends.

           How would a five dimensional apple appear to three dimensional humans in four dimensional space (time as a dimension)? A visual, let's say of a five dimensional apple. Would we see a red color, for instance. Would it appear as a small red floating ball? Or, would we 'see' anything? Any takers? I'm curious. Thanks, rho :-)

         Earlier, in responding to Doug’s UFO visuals you sent this:

Doug, thanks for the photos! Interesting! I keep your emails as sources. Many years ago, I think Carl Sagan had a show in which they tried to show how it would be (in theory) for a three dimensional object (I think it was an apple) to enter two dimensional space. Do you remember this?

         You remember bringing this up in class for many years, notably some time during the logic lecture as an example. Usually it was coupled with the remark: “If an object has neither straight or curved lines, or a combination of such lines, humans would not ‘see’ it as we are not built to do so. And you would site studies in the early seventies in which kittens were raised in either horizontal oriented environments or vertical oriented environments and after a time in such conditioning they did not ‘see’ the environment together, that they were conditioned not to see something. And, how the native Americans when first seeing Spanish ships did not see them as such because they had never seen them before.

         I did rattle on, but it is still a question in my mind. To me it is entirely possible that our perceptions of reality (beyond our basic needs to survive) are quite limited. Even our machinery is limited to what our minds can create and accept as a ‘reality’. People talk on and on what reality is, but I don’t think they actually know what it is. Certainly in this context I do not.
