A new theory by Michael Pravica, a professor of physics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, suggests that human consciousness might originate from hidden dimensions of the universe rather than solely from brain activity. Pravica claims that during moments of heightened awareness—like making art, practicing science, or even dreaming—our consciousness could transcend the limitations of our physical dimension and tap into these invisible realms.a

Scientists have never been able to explain the origin of consciousness. Where does it come from? What is its origin point in the human body? Now an expert has suggested that consciousness might not be a part of our three-dimensional world and likely comes from a hidden dimension.

A baffling new theory to explain human consciousness has suggested it comes from hidden dimensions and is not just brain activity. A physicist claimed that we plug in to these invisible planes of the universe when making art, practicing science, pondering philosophy or dreaming, and this could explain the phenomenon that has evaded scientific understanding for centuries.

When we think creatively or have “Eureka” moments, we may actually unlock access to a dimension outside of our everyday perception, according to the controversial theory.

The skies can be clear, blue, and tranquil. "And all of a sudden, boom, you hit it," Dan Bubb, a former airline pilot and now an aviation historian at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, told Mashable.

The biggest issue you'd face is reaching that speed in the first place.

Re “Titan submersible implosion: another safety lesson learned through tragedy” (Editorial, June 24): Despite our ability to adapt and our incredible intelligence, humans can’t live in the extreme conditions of the deep ocean. The use of an experimental submersible that was not tested with the full rigor necessary to operate it as a commercial vessel should never have been allowed.

Questions still remain after a missing Titanic submersible suffered a 'catastrophic implosion' and left five people dead.
