Thanks for the the link and great respect for Sagan.
But presently on a Mind Detoxification Diet which precludes the consumption of video. (long story)
Any chance for a quick summary of points.
Appreciated.

I have always had difficulties in visualising the concept of a fourth dimension. It is for example rather simple to visualise a finite 2d space which is boundless e.g. the surface of a sphere but as soon as we try to fathom the same fact for a three-dimensional space (the known universe) it’s beyond the capacity of our mind.
What I can’t understand about this three-dimensional concept is why those dimensional apparitions are seen at their respective places. Well, might sound stupid – what I mean is why does an UFO appear in the sky and a ghost e.g. in a house/castle.
In other words, why doesn’t an UFO manifest itself in my living room?
Is this some kind of a one-way awareness?

We exist in the 3rd dimension (height/width/depth)
Some consider time a 4th dimension..

I think you misunderstood my question. However - thank you for the reply. Perhaps i'll try to make my point clearer as soon as I find some more time.
