Abstract
Digital organisms are the focus of much research and development, but the nature of their cyber universe habitat has received lesser scientific scrutiny. Here the cyber universe dimensions are described. A third dimension called Hop is proposed apart from cyberspace and cyber time. The cyber and the physical universes are compared and a number of questions about the two are raised.
