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.

    Sometimes I think that the universe is a conscious being, forged by the networks of dark matter, which are similar to the patters of neurons in a brain, thinking maybe we live in somebody's brain, while there is another universe inside my brain, that's probably why we only use a small part of our brain at a time. So we are inside eternal brains. Because the brain that we are inside is proberbly inside someone elses brain; and so on. And a billion years to us might be only a year to the the persons brain that we are inside. Which means that the brain that they're inside 1 year = 1 billion years to them is 1 billion*1 billion = "1e+18" years to us and that can go on f…

    Two Circular Iron Plates and another Heavy Circular Weight are stacked one above other. In the pattern below. The whole thing A, B & C touching each other is weighed together and weighs X. A & B are then magnetised and the arrangement put up again A, B & C once again in contact with each other. This arrangement weighs Y. Obviously A & B are stacked with compatible Polarity. Then B is inverted and the magnetic force is such that B& C are in contact but they float above A without physical contact [just like those trains these days]. This arrangement weighs Z. The Question is : Will X be equal to Y ? Will Y be equal to Z ? …

    The official government report on the collapse of WTC building 7 (a 47 story skyscraper which also collasped on 9/11 as the 3rd of the day) reports that during the first few seconds of its collapse, that the building accelerated at freefall speed. This is astonishing. How could this be possible without the use of controlled demolition techniques to use explosive energy to more the matter that sits at the bottom of and directly underneath the building out of the way so that it does not provide resistance when the upper part moves through its normal path? That is, normally we use explosives from top to bottom to acheive fast collapes that are close to freefall. But no…

    These are MY PROPOSALS and LAWS OF COSMOS : Walker's Laws of COSMOS and UNIVERSE >>>>> Law 1 : There is NO LIMIT to EMPTY SPACE ! Explanation : Limit of Space/Emptiness : It is alright to seek a limit on matter/substance but why seek a limit on emptiness or nothingness. So space [in terms of Euclidean dimensions] has to be unlimited. Let us take a straight line going to infinity in both the directions. Nothing can end this process [as if something ends it what is beyond it which has to be something else which too will get termed as space] and if what is told as space-warping and bending of space takes place to result in an egg-shell s…

    What went wrong in the proof of the theory that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light? In a “normal” size vehicle, let say with the height of the interior of the vehicle (the distance from the floor to the ceiling) is about 3 m (≈3.28 yards), the time it takes the light beam emitted from its source on the floor to hit the ceiling is 10-8 of a second – literally a split bit of a second. The right triangle used to prove in the theory above is obtained under the assumptions that: Light would travel at the constant speed c=3×108 m/s regardless of the frame of reference. From the external observer’s perspective, light would hit the ceiling of the vehicl…

    I have been researching the navigational ability of homing pigeons, which are descendants of the wild rock dove, ( Columba Livia ) and have discovered that they posses what can be considered the biological equivalent of an astrolabe...To anyone unfamiliar with Astrolabes, Wikipedia gives a good summation of what they are and their uses. There is a simple experiment that shows how this biological hardware works, which can be performed using a live homing pigeon and a 100 Watt incandescent lamp. (No harm comes to the pigeon.) Recent advances in quantum science, have shown that homing pigeons have a biological compass and I can show experimentally that they also posses a b…

  9. Was in the middle of reading a thread on the double slit experiment and sometimes the discussion was about photons and sometimes about electrons. Seems to me an electron is a different thing than a photon. In school I learned that an electon would drop from one energy level to another and release a photon of light of a particular wavelength and amplitude that was always a multiple of a single quantum of energy. What I never was told was what direction this pulse was released in, and always imagined it was going out in all directions like a 3-D ripple similar to the ripple in a pond caused by a pebble dropped into it. But if a photon can not be divided int…

  10. if time is measureable it must have a base unit which would make planck happy. at this scale, everything moves at the speed of light. massive particles can store energy and then release it. this creates a non continuous effect or "real time". it splits interactions up thus creating the effect of sub luminal velocity. the constant is a constant and will remain a constant constantly...

  11. Have certain scientists in the past and present been artificially and unduly elevated to a celebrity position where they were/are revered by their peers, followers, and thus, laymen with no expertise in their fields, so that the statements of such people (no matter what they claim) could not be disputed? People must learn to question what they are told: - “Do I really know what I’m being told is true, or am I just assuming that it is true?” - “Have I looked into the subject matter deeply enough or am I mindlessly accepting it?” - “Who or what are the authority figures in my life that are influencing my thoughts and behaviors – governments, parents, friends, experts, relig…

  12. This is my first time starting a topic on the speculations forum. Those that know me know I have a good understanding of cosmology as well as particle physics. One idea I have been kicking around every once in a while is a different sequence in the mathematics involved in particle physics and as a result cosmology. Normally we like to look at thermodynamics at absolute zero to an upper range. Same applies to velocity. However what if we instead look at setting the speed of light c and the Planck temperature at the maximum. Then look at how particles decay out of equilibrium from those two values? At the Planck temperature all particles present (funda…

    [(Abstract preciously posted.)] Introductions Before the beginning there was no "stuff", only space and time. So, space says to time: "How long have you been here?" and time says: "How long have I been where?" Time had to be first. It is simplest, having no traits, and something had to make existence logically possible by existing. Time also makes "difference" and "measurement" possible, but with everything the same and there being nothing to measure anyway. Space has many traits, and could even make both "quantum" and "difference" possible physically, not just logically. It likewise would need nothing for existence, not even time. All else would need both space an…

    Hi everybody! I was looking for a french scientific forum which would accept a speculative theory on mass and could not find any, so I decided to look for an english one, and there you were. Unfortunately, as my title points out, I have no maths to present, but still I hope that my point of view will interest some of you. Mass has always been considered by the scientific community as an intrinsic property of matter, except for Mach who considered that it was due to the interaction between bodies of the entire universe. What I figured out has ended close to Mach's ideas, but the kind of interaction that I propose explains the two properties of mass, motion and resi…

    Abstract For decades, two aspects of nature have been overlooked and poorly / not understood. The one is an Anisotropic Dark Flow Acceleration (DFA). The other is Relativistic Resistance against Motion (RRM). The consequences for our picture of the Universe are tremendous. (This is a beta version).. PART 1 Anisotropic Dark Flow Acceleration. In order for even a rather significant Anisotropic Acceleration to be measurable on Earth (e.g. with a gravimeter), it requires rather specific conditions to be present. Regardless of the inclination of the solar system in proportion to a (theoretical) anisotropic acceleration direction (which in the following will be …

  17. A Planks formula, a moderators formula and a lay-man -- confused. In a thread about “quanta of time” the moderator exposed a formula about intensity of power of photon depending by frequency and temperature: I ( v,T) = (2*h*v^3) / (C^2 * (e^((h*v) / (k*T)) –1)) In the Plank formula we have another version for the same issue: I (λ,T) = (2*π*h*C^2) / (λ^5 * (e^((h*C) / (λ*k*T)) –1)) I am confused because it seems to me that they differ in amount and in concept. Any explanation please where I am wrong, especially in link between (λ, ν, C)

    Could there be two different constants? Energial and Physical(E=mc2)? Well if there could be an energial constant it could look something like this: E(NC)=V∞/0 (Infinity over zero to denote that neutrally charged energy's speed depends on the universe's expansion rate. Or does it?) Answer this question below.

  19. Momentum of electromagnetic radiation is the correct question. How can radiation from the space probe towards empty space possible have a decelerating impact on the pioneer space probes. Are there any scientific evidence for such statement ? It sounds acceptable that the opposite, - which mean photon bombarding / hidding the space probe - could have an effect, and either accelerate of decelerate the space probe. But photons leaving the space probe? - no, - unless there are hard evidence, - such is really difficult to believe.

  20. Hello, I would like to apologize to everyone who read the "McCaustland Theory" it was poorly explained, and very unorganized. This is my second attempt to explain my own personal hypothesis on the universe. First of all I do believe that black holes are actually how the universe first began, this is due to the phenomena known as hawking radiation. This explains why singularities less than a nanometer across dissipate (Correct on measurement if necessary). Now this I believe is due to another still highly hypothetical phenomena I like to call ultra-high velocity ejection. In the hypothesis of ultra-high velocity ejection I believe that when matter reaches the singularity i…

I saw things that would make so I could not be right. They are all as important as anything I recognized must be true. What moves the Universe as we know it can't be made of anything we know. At least on the scale it would have to be happen at. What I see must be doing something beyond that scale. If you have opinion about my choice please just listen.

That is why I have decided to change my previous username from Mrs Zeta to my real name, Marios Kyriazis. Below is a posting I wrote some months ago about this issue, and I can provide full peer-review references if anyone wants to discuss this: Online anonymity, privacy and longevity (Or: Relinquish your privacy if you want to live longer) At first, it may appear strange to suggest that living longer has something to do with using pseudonyms online.

  24. Unfortunately, the model with plastically deformed contact points is too inaccurate to hold. It predicts a friction coefficient equal to the ratio of the shear flow stress to the compression flow stress, which is often near 0.6, and that's wrong even for most metals, whose friction coefficient is often between 0.12 and 0.4. These two numbers don't even vary in a correlated way. I know it's one historical model that is taught in books and courses, but there is no reason to believe it, use it, no teach it.

    Every equation of the relativity is just the way to understand through to solve one question of math. 1+1=2 step by step. And we just add the feeling into the equation as the hypothesis. I hope to make a big new theory without the relativity. The number is just enough now. Maybe another thing would happen as we understand the way through the math in logical way. The experience is just in the way of the math problem, again too.
