The fifteen dimensions of the universe!
There are 15 dimensions in our universe. The universe is the 4th dimension consisting of five volumes all together, but separated by sheer scale of size. As there must be three dimensions in a volume, 3X5 = 15.
The universe is made of galaxies, and those galaxies are made of stars. We live on a planet, and everything is made out of molecules and atoms, which interact with an even lesser volume containing photons. There are, all together, five, 3 dimensional volumes, as it takes a minimum of four, 2 dimensional sides to make the smallest possible volume, and three, 1 dimensional lines to make the smallest possible area, that are made from a minimum of two, 0 dimensional adjacent points in space.
Although this is a purely mental construct, it explains this universe as an infinite object of 4 dimensions, with 5 volumes and 15 measures of lengths. This is why there is space, energy, matter and time. We see matter as energy, or just empty space, from a different volume. We cannot get to the stars because they are of a greater volume, just as we cannot get to the atoms, because they are in a lesser volume than us. And above and below these are even greater and lesser volumes.
Each volume is infinite, but is part of a greater volume. Theoretically there should be an infinite number of volumes too bigger and smaller, going on forever in scale, but we only need five volumes of sized things to make up this universe.
