five-dimensional space

of a 5-cube|240px A five-dimensional (5D) space is a mathematical or physical space that has five independent dimensions. In physics and geometry, such a space extends the familiar three spatial dimensions plus time (4D spacetime) by introducing an additional degree of freedom, which is often used to model advanced theories such as higher-dimensional gravity, extra spatial directions, or connections between different points in spacetime.
