Well the spatial dimensions in special relativity is all ****ed up.


Sounds like a rock song from the 50s.

Special relativity, like general relativity uses the three observed
spatial dimensions plus a time dimension. Those relativity theories,
as well as the modern physics theories, such as QED, enjoy the fact
that there has never been an observation that contradicts a prediction
of those theories.
