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.

Hi, I am currently build a new mind machine using frequency technology, I am just starting out on this, but have all the schematics prepared and shall make a 3D model of my machine shortly.... What I need is some help with programming circuit boards for activating frequencies from a cell phone, or similar radio device, or information about the components needed. The machine is actually quite simple to build, and the total cost would probably be no more than about 200 - 500 dollars... Anyhow this is the help I need from others about stuff.... 1. I need to connect a mobile cell phone to USB, and write Driver software to activate the Phone to * emit fre…

This is merely a proposal of a workable metaphor. It may be of use in the same way that the metaphor of gravity being the curvature of spacetime is useful. Sometimes the simplest of ideas can be the catalyst to a major shift in discovery and understanding. I offer this as an idea in the hopes that the model might be useful. What if the membranes in M theory had mirror-like qualities? The use of two mirrors facing each other as a metaphor presents some interesting parallels to how physics describes the functioning of reality. If a particle (and all of physicality) is actually more like the image in a mirror and we have two mirrors facing each other, such an interac…

I just posted this to a locked sticky, but there might be some desire to discuss it, so here it is http://physics.open.ac.uk/~sserjeant/faq.txt Scroll down to "I have a new theory of the Universe" Many of the points have been made here before, but it really underscores the point that the typical "I have a new theory" poster woefully under-appreciates the complexity of science, and how myopic their view of it is. Also how "I've got the basic theory, but need someone to do the math part for me" is really a non-starter

The pop-sci version of massive objects accelerating to the speed of light says it would require more energy to reach c than all the energy of the universe, is it possible a color confinement analogy might take effect? If one could double the energy of the universe by accelerating a massive object close enough to c, could you get two metaverse? Like pulling a quark out of a hadron gives two hadrons.

Ok, I am developing a new theory that I think could work, but it needs a lot of work. So the short version: The smaller something is, the faster time goes, and the shorter it's life. I will need to explain this more now. So, we have a fly. Doesn't live that long. Now this is something I will need to study more, but, does it live a full life, relative to humans? How many times a day does a fly eat? If my theory is right, then the average fly will have eaten as many meals as a average human. That is what I am getting at. Tomorrow, I should have a better explanation, but from those facts you could draw some conclusions. Of course, there are some holes, like …

What if space time is actually "Pure Still Time" a stand alone entity. How bout this, what if the illusion of gravity is relative the amount of pressure from the mass body against "PST" So when someone says to me bending of space time due to a massive body, this to me is a false staement, it is in my theory the displacement of the "PST" trying to return to its point of origin. I have had a thoery for about 25 years that may explain universal movement and including the dark matter problem can be accounted for and why. Interested.........First time Ive ever shared my thoughts with anyone so forgive the spelling and grammar.

Dear Sirs: How are you doing? My name is Kris Kuehl. I have solved the world's energy crisis, and I have the solution to absolutely every problem in the universe listed at my website below. I also prove the bible to you in one paragraph. I have built a machine which will power itself and provides an infinite amount of electricity to anything. It only cost me $777.00 to make, and I highly recommend that you build one for yourselves, and for the betterment of mankind. There is no patent on it, please feel free. It's as simple as a lawnmower: 1. a car battery. 2. A power-inverter from Wal-mart. 3. A skilsaw circular saw that spins 5300 rpms, from Wal-mart. 4. a 5/…

Controversy: Von Klitzing’s constant vs. Ohm’s rule. It was a surprise for me that consulting Codata found Von Klitzing constant. I had calculated electric current, electric voltage, electric resistance based only in classic radius of particles. This was for my hypothesis. Von Klitzing constant is the same as resistance of electric voltage / toward current (amperage) of electric charges, in alleged circular trajectories on electron particle, proton particle and three imaginary particles. I thought : this is a good supportive argument -- I am in right track with my hypothesis about structure of elementary particles. It is a good argument about hypothesis that an elementary…

Before I begin I just want to say that I'm not sure this is in the right section, and I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong place. What follows is just my own speculation, others may have thought of this before me, so I am not going to claim this is purely my idea. Imagin two sheets of paper, parallel to one another. Each one representing a different universe, and each one floating in a perfect 0g environment. Suppose that we put some mass on the paper (assume the papers don't gravitationally attract to each other but that the mass on the papers can never fall off the paper). The mass on the paper would gravititationaly attract to itself, but the mass on the other p…

This is an open discussion concerning the recent thoughts that have occurred in the months passed, all thoughts below are theoretical and are my own. The fear of the afterlife is a world wide known eventuality and many avoid the thought processes involved with its understanding. In my personal and partially relevant beliefs the afterlife is a continual nothingness, many believe or find comfort in the thought of an afterlife which aids in the acceptance of death. So the theory that I have succumb to in the recent months is of a virtual reality in which we are entwined into on the date of our ends, the system it's self is completely theoretical. Please excuse any …

I want to draw on interdisciplinary evidence to spark a train of thought into what gravity actually is. Here's a few links that I think are appropriate. Gravity is stronger near extremely cold objects. Magnet- http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Does_cold_and_hot_temperature_affect_the_strength_of_a_magnet Black Hole- http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/ask_astro/answers/971111e.html Also, rats live longer in colder temperatures. http://joshmitteldorf.scienceblog.com/2013/02/25/cold-temperature-and-life-span-its-not-about-the-rate-of-living/ We also know of the ice man mummy who survived this long because he was buried in ice. Cold temperatures preserve the…

In this thread, I will outline the scientific reasons why I theorise or speculate from the mathematics of sound, and wavelengths, and research findings concerning granite, sacred places, and brain frequency research findings, and sexual climax recordings why 111 Hertz seems to be the GATEWAY between the left and right brain cortex's, among other things, and what happens at that moment in time. If you challenge this gateway, do make it mathematical and not a literary remark, or semantics or due to your religious belief system. Thanks. I will be back shortly... Seeing if this gets posted.

Here's a hyperlink to 13 pages of mathematical proofs, that I would suggest prove that the Solar System shows the design template of the Golden Section which the Creator used in forming all reality whether macro or micro or middle cosum... us http://www.davidjayjordan.com/MathematicalProofDesign1.html Its 11 pages so will take a while to go through, but a basic understanding of PHI or the Golden Section is almost essential, in so doing. So if you come to a stumbling block or query, just go to one of the many supportive hyperlinks indicated. Design takes a while to see, yet those espousing lack of design say it all came about by lucky chance or mucky mutati…

So I wasn't sure where to post this question, and it's more of a silly pondering than a serious speculation, but, I've often wondered if all known phenonmena in the universe are required for the existence of life. For example it's the electrons in the atom that give rise to the chemical phenomena on which life is based, it's gravity that causes the production of carbon in stars etc. For example neutrinos. What are they? Do they interact with anything and are they truly fundamental or just another aspect of some other phenomena? Please forgive my ignorance of the subject and the probably silliness of the question. I realize the question is rather broad and vague. I…

This conversation was had on April 14, 2012. The original poster was interested in a theory of grammar using statistics and posted the following while quoting from one of his fellows. He said- The word oink doesn't sound like a pig, but it is the word that is relevant to the sound that pigs make. So yes, it does mean "pig" in some sense. Clearly related There may be a relation there, the relativity is within a minimal environment, but there is definitely a correlation. But these words are also correlated through relevance. The word "hissing" occurs relative to the occurrence "snake" and therefor, "hissing" occurs within the environment of "snake" and visa vers…

I have to disagree that information cannot be transferred through entanglement on the sole basis that the quantum mind hypothesis depends on it and because I cannot see any other way of making the brain computational and closing that gap in the mind body problem. The reason I posted that video of max tegmark earlier is because he seems to think that neutrinos have the capability of "learning" as they pass through objects and also that it's a quantum effect. It's about the "package density". It's obvious to me that the mind is quantum in this sense, and I wish I had a citation to the video of calcium activity in the brain so I could show you guys what I mean. Information …

Liquid Metal Magnetized Shell – A liquid metal outer hull held together by gravitational inner magnetic heavy metal core. The ability to changed solid to liquid state used for space traveling, the outer shell is liquified to provide fuel for traveling extended distances. As particles hit the superheated outer hull they are absorbed and converted into fuel while traveling at near light speeds.

My theory challenges the long-held paradigm, that the asteroids did not have a planetary origin. Solar System wide anomalies, are logical consequences of my proposed, catastrophic, event. The attitude of the scientific community towards my theory has been disdainful. So, the only "platform" open to my ideas, was by a website. Please, using GOOGLE.COM, read my theory (far too long for this space),on; <link removed by mod> I have just learned about "science forums," so am testing the water. My hope is for more immediacy than from a website, regarding feedback. Thank you for your time and I look forward to your "disdain free" comments. Fred

If we live in a finite universe, it will have a finite life span. This limitation will be a result of the underlying minor flaws (viruses) of it's original informational logic construction, but still allowing reality to exist long enough for sentience to occur, so a way of our surviving this upcoming event is possible. If we were able to determine the conditions that led to this universe appearing in the first place, we may be able to create a new universe, with which to flee into as this one dematerializes. I see a condition of a true void being the main requirement. This would require a negation of the existing matter, energies, fields, and the dimensions themselves to…
