Then in 2011, Goddard engineer Donald Dichmann, who at the time worked for Applied Defense Solutions in Columbia, Md., and his co-authors began work on a paper reviewing the trade studies NASA made when it decided to move its Interstellar Boundary Explorer from its original orbit to a more stable position at another lunar - resonant orbit — P / 3 — where it's mapping the boundary between the solar system and interstellar space.
In a world with more than three dimensions, there would be no stable orbits for electrons — hence no chemistry, hence no chemically based life - forms, hence no us.
