Re: Time Travel
Yes, spatial dimensions operate in a way that we move and interact with. We exist in "time", just like the river analogy you mentioned about water always being still. But as we move about or stand still, we still pass through time as an abstract concept. It surrounds all things. So perhaps dimensions beyond that of the third exist in a radically different way that we don't yet know of, same with states of matter. First, second, and third dimensions. Solid, liquid, gas. Seems simple enough? Ah, but there are also plasmas and Bose-Einstein condensates. These states of matter are nothing like the three states of matter that we are most familiar of, just as the fourth dimension might be much different from the three spatial dimensions.
