Speculations

Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.

Speculations Forum Rules

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

    there is a u-tube that some might think worth watching....[ George F. R. Ellis, on the nature of cosmology today (2012 Copernicus Center Lecture) ]. Here is an excellent discourse on some of the things I have been trying to approach in the "why anything" question, especially a good critique on Krauss's "quantum fluctuation" idea....

    In the paper "GRAVITATION AND ELECTROMAGNETISM - Introduction to the THEORY OF INFORMATONS by Antoine Acke" - published on http://www.wbabin.net/astro/acke2.pdf - a new theory is presented about the phenomena and the laws of the gravitational and the electromagnetic interactions. The term information is introduced in physics by narrowing its everyday meaning to a physical concept. It is given a specific sense by defining it mathematically. The THEORY OF INFORMATONS starts from the idea that a physical object manifests itself in space by emitting informatons. Informatons are dot-shaped mass and energy-less entities that rush away with the speed of light ca…

    On the southern coast of Peru lies the desert peninsula of Paracas. This barren landscape is where Peruvian archaeologist Julio Tello made an astounding discovery in 1928. His efforts uncovered a massive and complex graveyard buried under the sand and rocks. In these tombs Tello found some of the most controversial human(?) remains in history. The bodies had the largest elongated skulls in the world and have since been called the Paracas skulls. Tello found a total of more than 300 skulls and they have been dated at around 3,000 years old. A recent DNA analysis performed on some of those skulls has presented amazing results that could challenge the current perspective o…

  5. Infinity does not exist. It is a finite system with a starting point and an evolving exact size. If something like space or time is infinite doesn´t that mean that energy and so mass and matter has to be infinite too? If infinity is existing why would the Universe evolve?

  6. We are working with infinity because making sense of nothing is more difficult. Make sense of nothing and you have to provide explanations for the inspected physical and metaphysical values and a cause and causality reasoning on the evolution until the inspection. With infinity we can take things granted and we do not have to explain how that thing is there. Just it is not true. Infinity obscure the human brain. Inspect the origin as the physical zero state which is a Space(time), Energy(matter) Information free nothing. The exponential evolution of space and and energy and the linear information about them provided by time suggest that the system started fr…

  8. My father used to laugh at the funny theories of Einstein; the most ludicrous residing within Relativity. The Universe stands for everything and everything cannot expand into itself, for that would not be an expansion. There would have to be something else out there to expand into, beyond three dimensional space. And since we would be expanding it to it, it would have to be bigger than 3d space, so we would have to redefine Universal to mean less than half of everything. I have performed 3d graphics for too many years on computers and I have developed an innate ability to visualize in 3d accurately. If you are expanding all of three dimensional space, it would include…

    Superconductivity is misunderstood as well as misnamed by science. Tests were done at White Sands, thatindicate semiconductors are superconducting when the atoms are in North-to-South alignment. This is a new state of matter, similar to solid liquid gaseous and plasma; a state of alignment. This state is an example of the Science of Harmonics or Sympathetic Vibrations; for we either have atomic content working together and creating one larger EMF field or they are not in harmonic cooperation and have many separate smaller EMF fields competing with each other. We know the electron always go in the south pole of an EMF field and exits the north end. So when superconducting …

  10. Objective, repeatable procedure to spot atmospheric anomalies. This will describe a method that can be used to observe objects located within the atmosphere that have an anomalous behaviour. We will be basing the procedure on the known fact that the sky scattering of visible light in daylight have a masking effect, the effect that makes the stars not visible in daylight normally, but it is known that this scattering decrease with the light wavelength, the reason why the sky is blue, so that scattering will be lower in the red portion of the spectrum but even lower if we move to the infrared or even the short radio wavelength, so observing the atmosphere in the red se…

  12. What if Dark Matter in motion causes gravity by pushing? What if the Universe is really simple because it is only "stuff" (sometimes infinitely small stuff) banging into other "stuff" at varying speeds causing pressures the opposite of what we are imagining? What if the moon is being pushed towards the earth by Dark Matter in motion and not pulled? What if the Earth is actually less "dense" than the surrounding Dark Matter and thus the moon is pushed towards it? What if magnetic forces were caused by infinitely small amounts of Dark Matter pushing outwards at less pressure than surrounding Dark Matter pressing inwards? What if Energy is simply Dark Matter in motion being…

    If we put a piece of iron and a magnet close to each other , they will attract , but horizontally there will be little resistance to their relative motion , the force will be vertically and no resistance horizontally, doing little horizontal work will change the vertical force from zero to a number, the change in force will result in huge work. I put a piece of iron close to a magnet , they will attract, I move the iron horizontally away from the magnet, the magnetic force will be zero, I move the iron away from the magnet vertically , then I move the iron towards the magnet horizontally, they will attract again , doing such thing over and over will generate huge wor…

  14. So the question is, if we live in a determined universe, which follows classical laws of action-reaction, in which consciousness (an ability of the mind to sit above space-time and override action-reaction) is an illusion, does this suggest that there is no relationship between us deciding to go to the moon, calculating how to do this and us landing on the moon?

  16. every system like the planets around the sun will result in centripetal force towards the centre, due to the combination of both the rotation around the centre and the rotation around the axis , in the planets we have extra centripetal force in addition to the gravitational force between the planet and the sun, the force is inversely proportional to the radius of the rotation ®, let say the mass is (m) the linear velocity around the sun is (V) the velocity around the axis is (v), then the force F will be: F= ( m*v*V)/r for the earth : F= (5.9e24*30000*465.1)/149e9 = 5.5e20 newtons the gravitational force is 3.51 e22 newtons , the force due to motion is : F=mv^2/r = 3.56 e…

    Most will disbelieve this theory, however, as the world is not flat, the sun is not a ball of gas. The sun is a structured atom similar in structure to a phosphorous atom. Everything is relative. There is a molten ocean of gases on the surface of this radioactive isotope. When they part, and you see the surface of the star, it's black. These are called sunspots. What is known as a black hole is already there, the nucleus of the atom. As with any structured atom, most of the space within is empty, consisting of several shells of electrons, with the outer shell being the exterior of the atom. The atmosphere of the star is a composition of the gasses found heading to…

  21. Hi all. I am looking for a graphing software that can plot parallelogram law summations the way the diagram in the link below shows. As you can see the orbits traced with this technique begins to precess on its own, that is, without the need for an additional central force. I want to obtain the rate of precession per revolution based on the distance [inverse square]. Does anyone know how to obtain this information? http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tFDkItTrHWY/Ug-bh0x_NRI/AAAAAAAAE6U/PKx81419uBA/s1600/Kepler's+Second+Law_4.bmp PS.

    I was just introduced to the concept of travelling in time through DNA lineage(you occupy the body of a person you are related to in another time period) when a friend explained the premise of the game Assassins Creed. This concept identifies a principal of time travel that I'm not sure I've heard defined concisely. It is evident that neither superman nor the crew of the enterprise would have achieved travelling backwards in time by accelerating in a forward direction. If time displacement were achievable it would require a substantial means of coordinating a path to the desired location. The dna model provides a mathematically definable context to analyse time travel fro…

    I have observed that all matter spins. Therefore, I am suggesting that the spinning action is a prerequisite for all matter. Can matter exist without spin? The duality of light suggests that as light travels through space, it is creating matter as it goes and then the matter disappears after the light passes. Under this hypothesis - aetheric pressure replaces gravity fields and magnetic fields.
