Is it infinity?

Are we even capable of wrapping our minds around this concept?  We may never know the answer and even with the tools we think we have. there are 4 dimensions that we have measured.  Lenght, width, depth, and time.  And there are even some fairly complex videos on YouTube stating that we may have 11 dimensions or more.  But how would they actually know?  This is where we are entering theoretical physics and the like.

In 1919, mathematician Theodor Kaluza theorized that a fourth spatial dimension might link general relativity and electromagnetic theory [source: Groleau]. But where would it go? Theoretical physicist Oskar Klein later revised the theory, proposing that the fourth dimension was merely curled up, while the other three spatial dimensions are extended. In other words, the fourth dimension is there, only it’s rolled up and unseen, a little like a fully retracted tape measure. Furthermore, it would mean that every point in our three-dimensional world would have an additional fourth spatial dimension rolled away inside it.

Is that trippy to get you mind around or does it sound reasonable?  Or is it both?
