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.

  1. Universe homogeneous/isotropic?, Is near enough good enough? I believe it was a good model, that now needs remodeling, Not stating has "gospel", As our understanding increases certain models "have" to change, Some will always resist change. And hold on tight to a model that as served well. I am not saying I have the answers, but I do believe sometimes you have to look with fresh eyes and without baggage. Mordred quoted but there are values that far exceed this 120Mpc, and there must be many we are yet aware of. coherent oscillations strongly support the idea that the first inhomogeneities in the universe were seeded during the accelerated…

    "Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, All the kings horses and all the kins men, couldn't put Humpty together again." The well known rhyme mentions nothing about how tall the wall was, or even if Humpty ever hit the ground, what if there was no ground, and Humpty fell right through into the abyss? Let us imagine the wall was a doughnut shaped structure around a black hole with the mass of the earth, with a radius equivalent to the earth. What was Humpty's potential before the fall and what happened to him after the fall, making it so difficult to reassemble him? Steven

  4. I believe that a more refined understanding of the power("force") of observation can endow us with a more effective way of discerning that nature is expressing supersymmetric relationships. I call this supersymmetric system the Recursion Scenario. I will be drawing attention to a recursive mechanism that allows information to be self similar, as well self replicative at every point within the system. This 'renormalization' of information, as existing on a reflective surface or horizon, then undergoing infinite propagation; is expressing the mirror to mirror relationships. I will describe Euclidean space as the 'Dark Energy (Isometry/Vector A)' side of the relationship,…

    Brief Outline of a New Theory. I was planning to write two articles, one more serious, the other styled in a less serious tone. Here, however is the brief outline of an article that outlines a theory of mine. We may examine a point in a System to be displaced. In going across or going up of a point B to point A it causes a force of displacement to A (therefore, if F=ma is correct, each point which has a mass and acceleration can be the cause of motion as a "force"). The functions can be moving up or across, but they have to be calculated simultaneously to occur; a hypotenuse is implied in the equation so changes in the formula for Area (1/2 bh, or 1/2 of the area …

  7. Hi everybody, The topic was about the process of evolution being a scientific method, but the real questioning was about the theory of evolution being a scientific method. I find the topic interesting as it is, so I risk a question about it even if it is a bit off topic, and you tell me if I should start a new one. Evolution is a trial and error process, and to me, scientific method too, otherwise, we would not be natural, because we would be able to predict any future, thus to predict our own evolution, and to drive it the way we want. If, like me, you think that we are not, why are we making a fundamental difference between the scientific evolution process and any o…

    I follow the many attempts on science forums, to provide an understanding of the nature of gravity or gravitation; also such phenomena as the nature of the known forces. Because there is a requirement that a discussion on subjects such as mentioned above must not involve speculation, I am left to wonder why such subjects are allowed in the general physics category. Mainstream science has an almost religious belief and for practical reason for the General Theory of Relativity. Even so, and despite the statements made by GR regarding gravitation being an illusion, and gravity only existing because matter has the ability to warp space, there is a lingering belief that grav…

    As I understand it, an electron is hard to get a good read on because it is appearing/disappering very quickly and also appears to be jumping orbits indiscriminately. I was wondering if there was any possibility that electrons could be in stationary orbits around a nucleus, which acting something like our sun, was throwing out flares in all directions. Once these flares hit an orbiting electron it would briefly "light it up" (something like an aurora borealis, for lack of a better example) allowing us to see/read the electron for the brief time it was "lit up". Now I am more than likely misunderstanding how an electron/nucleus interact, as well as seeing patterns …

Or, the vacuum energy could be like our carrier wave among many. Or, maybe there's a universal backplane/ground somehow, that our infinitely-small "goes" to, a place that connects to and supports other universes. Likewise infinitely far away. Our little universe would be part of God's cat's cradle. (imagery) One thing is for sure, if data ever shows that an other Universe exists, then comm…

  14. Initial Conditions; Inflation by head-start with 10-to-the-80 (+/-) incompressible neutrons, having no "unoccupied" discrete spaces between them in a volume the size of the horizon of a black hole were it to have that mass, whose equilibrium then gets disrupted (bang). Such a mother-of-all black holes would have the lowest possible "Hawking temperature". (Keeping in mind that heat is not a form of energy, but energy transfer.) By itself the knowledge that all the "stuff" in the early universe was in an extremely small space doesn't really say anything about its early microscopic kinetic energy. Its temperature could have been near zero followed by a massive …

  15. Are these virtual particles but universes many orders of magnitude smaller than our own, To us blinking into existence in a time span to short for us to observe, But universes just like ours, with all the physics/science and life that exists within ours. Our own universe but a virtual particle in another universe many orders of magnitude larger than our own. Perhaps each universe expanding until meeting/touch another expanding universe that touch and then annihilate each other like particle pairs.

    The theory of rotation within rotation: "Every object moving in a circular path, or even a curve , will possess internal motion, particularly regular one (rotation), the law of directions is simple, counterclockwise circular path will give counterclockwise rotation, clockwise circular path will give clockwise rotation, for objects on the surface of earth, north the equator will give counterclockwise rotation, south the equator will give clockwise rotation. The rotation of earth around its axis is due to such effect, and direction law applies for the earth and the other planets and the moons. This rotation has constant speed, an object starts at rest and continues at …

  19. I am going to post a summary of what I've written here which is in bolded words (just in case everything I've written here is too long for you to read and that you only have time and patience to read the summary itself). But everything I've written here is very interesting and important. So I would recommend reading all of it. Summary: God only exists in the form of a concept and this concept exists in the form of the functioning of the neurons in people's brains that have created this concept (and possibly in other objects based on their grouped atoms, but I am not too sure on this). But God does not exist at all in any other sense (whether it be supernatural or in…

  20. After a previous thread got closed "Earth as a living organism", I thought I would look more into the beginning of life on earth. I see this "soup" proteins/rna/dna as earths stem cells, containing all the building blocks for life that was to come, But there is also the theory that life began near heated sea vents It seems to be at the moment take your pick which you prefer, Whichever one or neither still leaves us with life "evolved on earth", Can life adapt to new worlds?. What I was thinking if we do start colonizing other planets, And stem cells react differently to different gravities and environments from the word go, There will come a tim…

How I Look at the Earth Earth is not just a floating rock in space, it is a living organism. Like all organisms on our planet, Earth need water, air, energy from the sun and symbiotic lifeforms living within it to survive. In order to survive all live on Earth must have water, air, energy from the sun, reproduce and have other symbiotic lifeforms living inside it. The planet Earth is no different and to start off with I should explain where this idea came from. I was sitting in geography class about two years ago and my ins…

  24. It appears that some people here in this site do not believe that video data is enough to make any scientific consideration, that video data is not even enough to merit any further study of something for which there is only video data. The security people monitoring many video feeds 24/7 may disagree with that assessment, many life and death decisions are taken using exclusively that kind of data, but for this people video data is insufficient to make any kind of actionable "decision". I would like to hear your opinions regarding that: Is video data enough to make any "scientific" consideration?
