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. I have no idea what to make of the recent rumors that strange sounds are being heard all over the world. I did see one professional recently saying that such sounds are quite normal and is probably caused by electromagnetic waves in the atmosphere from things like the aurora belt... If the following video has any truth behind it, I must say the sounds are very creepy. It almost reminds me of the sounds the tripods made in the film ''The War of the Worlds''. Ok so what would everyone's conclusion be... worldwide hoax? I didn't know whether to post this in speculations. I certainly can't prove anything here today, I am just reporting on it.

    This theory is similar to the particle theory. How to give a mass to the particle? There is a field in the space. The field property is similar to the electric orbit in the atom. When Particles are in this field, they have a mass. When the particles increase their speed , it is required a force depending on the field effect to the particle. F=ma m is a interaction parameter(particle mass) between the field and a particle when we change the velocity. The field has no drag. When a particle has 0 mass, like a light, it has a speed C. *** At the straight line movement High velocity --- high straight line movement orbit in the space Low velo…

    Looking Backward into the Future I get totally exasperated at both Science and Theist’s alike for providing such a dichotomy between the two sides of this forum as to who is right or wrong in what the other believes? But as humans; we will likely be extinct long before we come up with a solution to the answer. However, regardless of which side of the plate you swing from, the universe didn’t just simply appear from nothingness. To exist as science theorizes, it still demands a supreme entity of some sort to kick off the show. But what would this absolute power be? Scientist are straight forward in their stance of providing and proving theories. Many use this ratio…

  8. I have seen in a video on 3d modeling for games, that when you copy a 3d mesh with an Array Modifier, that every copy is relative to the initial start position of the original object being copied....and that every movement thereof is relative to the original copied object's "point of origin in this case x. Since " in 3d" the origin is smack in the center of XYZ in which your 3d model is positioned "at the start of assigning a primitive cube", then should relativity take place at 1/2 of "ANY" object's size, when "copies" or duplicates are involved? In other words, if you measure "something" don't you have to start it at 1/2 of its size not the initial start positi…

    Oh yes it is. You see it on films, which are the government preparations so we won't go mad when they arrive. Have you never heard of pyramidology? It is the science of pyramids. Take a sharp razor blade and put it under a cardboard pyramid. It left undisturbed, it won't go blunt in 400 years. Nice try, with your photoshopped fake, but the aliens would not just allow themselves to be photographed like that.

  10. Avoiding the maths, I am actually doing nothing but inverting the perfect fluid tensor. This would make no different predictions than the [math]\Lambda CDM[/math] model, except you would still have to add in extra curvature to account for the dark matter. This is just mathematically consistent, whereas the current model does not seem to be mathematically, logically or physically consistent. If you happen to know whether subtracting [math]G_{\mu\nu}[/math] from [math]\Lambda[/math] has ever been historically discussed, please let me know as I cannot find it and seems to be too simple of an explanation not to have been proposed before. Particles vs Waves The Ein…

    Assume that the adopted standard of time in our region of the universe is a selected pulsar with a rotation cycle of 1 second,and that the clocks on Earth and on all other space objects, including those with very big mass, are synchronized by the pulses of the pulsar. Thus, these clocks will always indicate the same time, everywhere in space, regardless of the mass of the object upon which they are located. This example, therefore, contradicts the truth of the gravitational time dilation. Am I right?

  12. I have truly in my opinion cracked a code that is far from completely solved but I am definitely on the right track and I believe that what I have discovered is proof to clearly state that there is in fact a God. I am challenging anyone in the World to attempt to prove or disprove the information that I have available. I have tons of information that I can readily bring to the table but am only willing to give it to you through email. I will give you an example on this forum but if you want the full story you would have to email me for additional free information, fair enough? Good, I hope that makes sense. So here is the code that I have discovered its quite sim…

  13. The concept of dark matter involves a physical objects' internal quantum vibration exeding "cresendo point" which is 186,000 mps. Once you can achive that (it is possible by means of coherance and charge) the same vibrational framework allowing it to stay mateialized in our 3 dimensional reality spacetime, becomes inverted, resulting in de-materialization. Were does the matter go? If your talking about inversion, than you know that if you leave space-time, you end up in time-space. The matter itself will never go away. ever. Were we are now (spacetime) you have 3 dimensions of space, while time is a constant (1D), of course. Once again since inversion has occured, timesp…

As an example, first consider the Ptolemaic, Earth centered model of the solar system.

A circle is an efficient enclosure of area. Equal arc length…

  15. One idea that has been recently proposed by the pioneer Fred Alan Wolf, is that consciousness created the Big Bang. He is possibly well-known by many as being one scientist who has shined importance on the role of the observer and how things do not exist until they are observed. What you will find in many of his books however is that they don't actually define observers very well -- and anyone left after reading his books might believe that only human observers actually collapse the wave function and create the world around them. It is true a thing does not really exist until it is pulled out of its wave function. The smearing of possibilities however can collapse wi…

  18. If we consider the Global Universe as the total Universe. (infinite or finite). and we consider Our Universe like that Universe that we know (from 10 exp -35 to 10 exp +27 meters), I propose the idea that we can divide the Global Universe in various (infinite) power of 10 levels or spectra (see attached file). Like a RAINBOW or MATRYOSHKA DOLLS. These levels/spectra can be posives or negatives, and we can supose that aprox. every googol (10 exp 100) could be a very different Universe with its own science laws, waves, entities and possible living beings. The shape and appearance of Our and Global Universe is only a "virtual" or "apparent" Univers that we sap…

The relative atomic weight of an atom expressed in grams as weight [mg] using the periodic chart represents one mole of that element. Although we call this an atomic weight [mg] one mo…

    If we see space and time as generated by mass and energy, it is suggested to develop reduced physics, giving up the notions of space and time The article published now on a website has not passed the peer review of NATURE, but nevertheless it seems to be a very different and attractive way to tackle the question of a primary system. This approach could even reconcile scientists with recent development in minimal arts and allow for a modern definition of the term of transcendence. As neither the standard model nor the Big Bang model nor even the relativity theory with the cosmological constant are free of hypothetical assumptions mainly in form of interpreted constants…

And of course, beneficial to mankind. Can anyone advise a good physical magazine, best to contact a specific person who would be open to new ideas? I understand the universe at the quantum level, and I have answers to many questions! Now I just need a good manager. Thank you for your help.

  22. Could gravitation and time not exist in pure darkness??? If so then can derivative calculations really be a simple 180 degree "turn" mistaken for .5 c or simply 0 the initial start of the system? In this simple formula of mine, I have found that this may be the case: 1/ [1/ x + t] / 2 * x * t * phase cycle = 1 Just a note here: x + t = k of the metric, manifold or matrix. 1 means 1 second in mm/s The 2 is the squaring of x and t "inverted." Using this simple formula I have provided as an example set x = 12 and t = 6 = 2[.866] mm/s rather yet beta the electron. This find only applies to rotating celestial bodies and or anythi…

    This question has bugged me for a long time. Sunlight "pushes" against 'solar sails.' They call it "solar wind." Laser light "pushes" against the lasers which fire it. They call it laser recoil. Light trapped in a box of mirrors "pushes" against the inside of the box, giving it more static inertia as if it were added mass. Yet the classic thought-experimental spaceship traveling at a significant fraction of lightspeed can not "push" a light shining ahead any faster than its speed limit, 'c.' It seems that the ship must travel into the tail end of that light, absorbing the difference between its velocity and 'c.' And it seems that its momentum acts like…
