YouTube Description
as posted by the channelNeil deGrasse Tyson and Brian Greene discuss why string theory demands more than four dimensions, based on a mathematical constraint requiring ten dimensions for internal consistency. Brian Greene explains that our inability to perceive these extra dimensions is due to the limitations of our senses. The conversation explores the idea of parallel universes—or “membranes”—where gravity might leak from one to another. This opens a provocative possibility: dark matter could be ordinary matter from a neighboring universe, with its gravitational effects bleeding into ours.
