Now correct me if I am wrong but as I see it, Hilbert space is the same
as n dimensional space and also hyperspace. Any space which is outside of
the real physical 3 dimensions we exist in.

There are only 3 real dimensions all other spaces such as n dimensional
space have no real physical existence wrt physical objects like people or
that which we can detect using physical means.

Outside of a closed universe, beyond the edge of the big bang universe,
is nothing. Not even a skin or shell, but the pure vacuum, the void, and
it has no space. It exists in our mind as a concept, and hence a
dimension, and we speculate that this is hyperspace, and you can have
worm holes in space, that consists of a perfect vacuum, and hence the
distance betrween two um space terminals if such a thing existed for
wormholes like4 a stargate, the distance would be zero between doors yet
in real space the distance is squillian light years.

So Hilbert Space relates to extra dimensions which we should realize are
in truth convenient imaginary constructs. And then Rigged Hilbert Space
has to include the real part so that together you can have the real and
imaginary described.
