Carl Sagan illustrates the difficulty in comprehending a superior dimension— here, a 2D world experiencing the 3D. The example helps to explain our inability to “see” 4D. Though we lack the capacity to truly experience a 4th dimension, we can have (to some degree) an understanding of it. I really liked this lesson. Good job, teach.
