Speculations
Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.
The Speculations forum is provided for those who like to hypothesize new ideas in science. To enrich our discussions above the level of Wild Ass Guesswork (WAG) and give as much meaning as possible to such speculations, we do have some special rules to follow:
- Speculations must be backed up by evidence or some sort of proof. If your speculation is untestable, or you don't give us evidence (or a prediction that is testable), your thread will be moved to the Trash Can. If you expect any scientific input, you need to provide a case that science can measure.
- Be civil. As wrong as someone might be, there is no reason to insult them, and there's no reason to get angry if someone points out the flaws in your theory, either.
- Keep it in the Speculations forum. Don't try to use your pet theory to answer questions in the mainstream science forums, and don't hijack other threads to advertise your new theory.
The movement of a thread into (or out of) Speculations is ultimately at the discretion of moderators, and will be determined on a case by case basis.

this site is a place for a punch of crazy people think that they get pleasure by talking about a story of a photon going and coming back , crazy people, how do get pleasure by talking about things that are invisible ? we get pleasure by our senses!! regarding my thread energy producer, I successfully generated energy from nothing, what do you feel about that basic physics is wrong? you get pleasure from something invisible and wrong this place is exactly a Sanatorium. swansont , imatafal , hyper _valent idione , klaynos , I WOULD LIKE TO BE BANNED.

With the moderators permission I would like to reintroduce this single topic, because I believe the question was not fully answered in the previously closed thread. We observe and agree that there are two kinds of charges positive and negative and we agree that matter in general is made up of particles carrying both kinds of charge, and we agree that there exists an electrical potential difference when two objects have differing amount of charge. We can think of this as having two bowls, A and B, each containing an even mix of black and white marbles, so we can say that the colour mix is the same and therefore no potential colour difference between the two bowls. …

The horizon program on Thursday casts doubt on the existence of gravity waves; as the ripple could be cosmic dust generated. Anyway, this is just as well as gravity is attractive not expansive so would makes balancing the universe even more difficult. Dark energy should in my opinion be renamed dark force as we are looking for a repulsive force to push the galaxies apart. A sort of repulsive accelerator.

I have spent many years trying to understand gravity. I know very well the current theories and their flaws, which is why I do not believe any of them are correct; not even the much praised General Relativity. And after much research, and nearly every scientific undergraduate classes offered by the good college of USF. I have found a way to understand gravity that fits in very well with almost all of the observed experimental data that I am aware of anyways. And hence created this theory I call Dynamic Gravity. Here is a video of me doing my best to explain it and show some of the reasons behind it: Dynamic Gravity Video Now, why do I post this theory on these forums…

How do we calculate the force of gravitational attraction between co-orbiting planets? Take 2 planets both the same radius from the Sun and have them start off at the L3 lagrangian position with respect to each other. (That is directly opposite each other on different sides of the Sun.) Now if for some reason one or the other is perturbed and and they get off the L3 Lagrangian Spot and hence over time they get pulled around the orbital circumference toward each other, but at the same time both are still orbiting the Sun. This is definitely not the same as two bodies separated by a distance 2 times the radius, because that was where they start from and they didn'…

I claim that relativity of simultaneity, as presently understood, is most likely inconsistent as a very concept. On the Nature of Time and Simultaneity Author(s): Benjamin Palan Abstract What is time ? Which properties are emergent and which are intrinsic ? Time is discussed, with special emphasis on properly discriminating the hypothetical outside perspective from the time of a world itself. This leads to a single, relatively simple model of time which is thought to encompass all others. Applying it to simultaneity, a conjecture is made which could turn out to be of great importance to proper definition and discrimination of relativity of simultaneity and of ab…

Hi I am wondering If there is an end of the universe, because I think even the whole universe get destroy, one day a new big bang may occur because It is infinitive maybe after trillions of years or more but It might be? am I wrong? Is that impossible to occur a new universe in a number of infinitive years? Sorry for my English, and Thanks.

Theoretically, if it were possible to increase the speed of an electromagnetic wave beyond the speed of light, would it then be possible to encode some form of basic binary data into said wave to send that data to the relative location of where the earth was, say, a month ago? Assuming that the destination of this wave was to a device capable of intercepting it and relaying the encoded data, that is.

Everyone is now familiar with the problem of galaxy rotation curves, and how it has given rise to speculations about galaxies containing dark matter. The problem was first announced by American astronomers Vera Rubin and Kent Ford in 1975, who collaborated to show that galaxies displayed a flat rotation curve and did not exhibit the expected Keplerian motion. Unable to explain such flat rotation curves, theoreticians proposed that there had to be additional matter to what was visible in the galaxy in order to account for the flat rotation curve, and it was coined "dark matter". Keplerian orbital velocity follows the function; [latex]v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}[/latex] …

What is the real age of Earth? By wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth "According to evidence from radiometric dating and other sources, Earth was formed around four and a half billion years ago. Within its first billion years,[37]life appeared in its oceans and began to affect its atmosphere and surface, promoting the proliferation of aerobic as well as anaerobic organisms and causing the formation of the atmosphere's ozone layer." Is it possible that in just one billion year from its creation, the Earth was cool enough to sustain ocean? The temperature at the center is as follow: "At the center, the temperature may be up to 6,000 °C (10,830 °F),[78] and the…

. EULER's DISC Parts of the heavy steel disc, keep falling under gravity towards the level mirror surface ( 90 degrees to radial gravity field line towards centre of the Earth ) . See picture. The disc keeps falling around its circumference , but never makes it. So the disc continues to spin a long time. Only the surface contact resistance uses up the potential and kinetic energy , for it to eventually stop. ( Not really a spin , more a slow turning as the fast falling oscillations occur. ) I have made a related observation : occasionally if china dishes are haphazardly laid on a hard granite surface , one plate will occasionally , rock back and forwar…

Now most of us have heard of black holes and how they (in the common knowledge I've come across) have mathematical properties that should make them tiny in comparison to the event horizon if not infinitely so from the fact that it's gravitational pull is so great that it trumps over the other forces keeping it from being defined 3-dimensional, but I have to ask," Why does it have to be so different from the common model of our other heavenly bodies?" I've looked at the possibilities of what a black hole must be since i was the age of nine and the more i learned about forces and the capabilities of atoms the more unlikely it seemed to be anything like the infinite speck t…

Recent comments by an Astronomy orientated Researcher Dr Paul J Abel (Patrick Moore Sky at Night Fame ) (see ajb blogg), has posed questions as to whether maths should be leading the resolution of the ( Quantum Gravity issue), which it is, in string theory and other maths orientated research., Yet ( he indicates ) what is really required is a New Einstein ! Observers, Thinkers , and Hypothesis, to lead the field and then the mathematicians can follow and tidy up the details. ! Post script. P.S. . hypothesis : " a suggested explanation for a group of facts, accepted either as a basis for further verification or . …

Supply and demand dictates they are already here. The rich, seekers of prolonged life - why not if your rich enough - will have been sold the potential of organs that their immune systems will routinely accept decades ago. The earliest of the clones could be in their 30's, right?

The entire universe is expected to decay at approximatly one google years(10100). At this time, every planet, star, black hole, etc. will be broken down into their basic particles. These particles will never again interact with one and other. Seeing that time relative, once all of the universe's components have been broken down, time itself will be destroyed along with it. Thus leading to an occurence where a non-physical dimension is destroyed.

This is from a'book on math I read. 1. Solve x + 4 = 4 x + (4 - 4) = 4 - 4 x = 0 2. Solve x = x + 1 x - x = x + 1 - x 0 = 1 What's the value of x? I understand that there's no solution to this equation. But if someone were to ask you ''What is the value of x?'' and you must reply in the following format...''The value of x is_____'' what would you write in the blank space? You can't write ''nothing'' because ''nothing'' is zero and zero is definitely NOT a solution to the problem. Or is 'zero' different from 'nothing'? Your valued comments please.

I'm just a novice in maths. So, I read this elementary book on math and my knowledge on the topic is summarized below... 1. Infinity is not a number. Infinity is to us is like googol to a calculator...overflow. It's an unquantifiable. In that sense, I always saw infinity to be closer to a quality such as color than say the number 4 or 5 etc. 2. Definition of infinity (using sets) Definition 1: A finite set is a set equivalent to the set {1, 2, 3,..., n}. An infinite set is NOT an finite set. Definition 2: An infinite set is a set that is equivalent to a proper subset of itself. A finite set is a set that is not infinite. Question: Which…

Continuing on from the Humpty Dumpty thread, where we were discussing the stored potential of matter, and the similarities between the gravitational field and the electrostatic fields, I proposed that the following equation be true; Eq.1 [latex] \gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{\phi^2}{\Phi^2}}} [/latex] Where [latex]\phi[/latex] represents the observers potential and [latex]\Phi[/latex] represents the potential of the proton. First I want to explain my reason for suggesting this to be true. I am speculatively proposing that the proton-electron are particle-antiparticle dispite their obvious difference in mass, and that the…

I envisage that the most enlightened souls of our time (Bodhisattvas in Eastern mysticism) were what I choose to define as black box personalities. They took learning as an unbiased venture and absorbed all stimuli as an attribute of additional wisdom. This is much like children who are very receptive and good learners. This is unlike adults who have preconceived notions and biases which affect sound judgement. A black box can absorb as well as radiate maximum radiation. Same is true of the above mentioned personality type. Please opine.

To begin with I must confess that I am completely self taught on the matter and hope you forgive me for saying this. I have noticed that all things come in as a cycle of 3, steel cans for example begin as iron oxide ore, this gets processed in phase 2 into steel cans (phase 3) which over time begin to transform themselves via rust back into their original form as iron oxide ore. The same things happen all over the place, copper for example and silver all oxidezes back into their original form. Life also had a beginning at conception where we grow older and die only to turn back into the raw components from which we came from, potash carbon and other trace elements. Ev…

Ok let's try this again Mr. Bond. If you ask for evidence why do you delete it or block it? Now if you take this article.... http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/565315/Scientists-at-Large-Hadron-Collider-hope-to-make-contact-with-PARALLEL-UNIVERSE-in-days You will notice they state that " The staggeringly complex LHC ‘atom smasher’ at the CERN centre in Geneva, Switzerland, will be fired up to its highest energy levels ever in a bid to detect - or even create - miniature black holes. If successful a completely new universe will be revealed – rewriting not only the physics books but the philosophy books too." First they won't accomplish this because they don'…

Hey guys. MASSIVE Science newb here. But recently I've REALLY started to get into it. Been watching lots of interviews / documentaries etc... I would LOVE to get answers (or just enter into a dialogue) concerning my questions from people who know their stuff! I've read that on account of the Big Bang,the universe is expanding, and that one day, galaxies and stars etc, will be SO far away, the night sky will be dark and no telescopes will be able to pick anything up insofar as light goes. So I cooked up this theory in my mind.... IF the nature of infinity is more akin to a circle rather than a straight line (i.e... If I set off in a spaceship, and travel straigh…

Red shift of light can be calculated from the changing energy required to go from one atomic shell to another. Consider the electron in the elliptical Bohr hydrogen atom going from shell 2 to shell 3. With the atom at rest a photon released will have a wave length of 656 nm and energy of 30e-20 joules. The when the atom is moving the latent energy doesn't change but the kinetic energy of the electron does. That means the energy of a photon released at the apogee of the ellipse will diminish as the velocity of the atom increases. The energy of the photon is equal to the change in the latent energy minus the change in kinetic energy. The similarity of the c…
