Introduction

     The Universe is expanding. That is to be expected. Within the last ten years it has been determined that not only is the universe expanding, that expansion is accelerating. That was totally unexpected. Only through an infusion of energy can anything of mass accelerate. The greatest mystery in cosmology today is “Where is the energy coming from that is causing the universe to accelerate its expansion?”. For lack of a better term it has been labeled “Dark Energy” because it is invisible to every attempt so far to “see”  or detect it. Yet it, and another term that represents more invisible “stuff” in the universe, Dark Matter, have alluded all attempts so far to identify their source.

     I was writing another paper on the expansion when, one night while finishing my thoughts about that paper, it occurred to me that there may be a connection between the premise in that paper to the source of Dark Energy. I did some quick math in my head and realized that the data fit the theory. Excitedly, I hurried to write down some notes before I forgot my train of thought.

This hypothesis, and the mathematical support contained, confirm the arguments in my first paper, that time is a multidimensional entity, and makes that case even stronger. This paper constitutes a hypotheses and mathematical argument, that the universe is indeed expanding multidimensionally, and Dark Energy and its source are explainable, but not of the form expected.
