"I have a standard axiom: all governments lie. Don't believe anything they say. And corporations are only kinds of government."
- Frank Herbert

Extradimensional  
  From another dimension.  

Probably first use of this term in science fiction.

Thus Duquesne, not even dreaming what an incredibly inconceivable distance from the Galaxy Seaton was to attain, nor what depths of extradimensional space Seaton was to traverse before they were again to stand face to face.
Technovelgy from Skylark of Valeron, by E.E. 'Doc' Smith.
Published by Astounding in 1934
