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.

Does the Bible describe Jesus Christ as ever making a totally new scientific discovery? Surely a person like him must have been the first to explain a phenomena that nobody could understand.

The last transit of Venus of this century mathematical analysis star chart graphic / Zhou Jian / June 7, 2012 The universe is all guess anything is possible When you simply observe it, and when you have mastered the mathematical analysis method to go study it, that all the guess neither exist. 06:10:10 start the morning of June 6, Sky staged a wonderful transit of Venus planetarium. This is the second transit of Venus of this century, the last time, called the century swan song. Until that small black spot on the surface of day: 49:31, 12:00, was slow out of the sun, the duration of six and a half hours, and that black specks is Hesperus. Venus obse…

i am working on a machine that produced a artificial super cell strorm, charges and seeds the cloud sections, and through the use of charged dust, a laser, and several solutions (seeds) added to the clouds, have produced scaled down and directable lightning. the question i have been asking around for quite some time is this: can the captured lightning if split enough times and scaled down through splitting, be used to power electrolysis cells full of sea water, and turn this sea water into its base elements like oxygen, hydrogen fuel, clean air/water, etc. i do know that the process is more than capable of doing so, its just the timing of it that is the problem, there wil…

The sci-fi novel: Amped, by Daniel H. Wilson "As he did in Robopocalypse, Daniel Wilson masterfully envisions a frightening near-future world. In Amped, people are implanted with a device that makes them capable of superhuman feats. The powerful technology has profound consequences for society, and soon a set of laws is passed that restricts the abilities—and rights—of "amplified" humans. On the day that the Supreme Court passes the first of these laws, twenty-nine-year-old Owen Gray joins the ranks of a new persecuted underclass known as "amps." Owen is forced to go on the run, desperate to reach an outpost in Oklahoma where, it is rumored, a group of the most enhanc…

Yes. it would change. Magnetism is a VERY overlooked part of physics. From the work I have done, magnetism is the key that science is missing to describe all of its phenomenons doings. Mass = Magnetic Flux in Teslas ( frequency in sec ^2 - current). even electrons have mass. Noone has been able to prove this formula for mass of wrong yet. Any takers? All it will take is one person to prove it wrong. And if you take M=T(S^2-A) and inject M in Einsteins equation of E=MC^2 you get a workable unified feild theory. so it would be E=T(S^2-A)Planks constant. Since things do go faster than the speed of light. And you have Einsteins relativity fixed to actually describe n…

Hey forum, This is Zyph. I tried to google this and stumbled across this forum. Maybe this isn't the right place to post or ask but I hope someone can guide me. I am not a scientist or a lab rat but I do enjoy learning especially in the science realm. I watched a show where a scientist talked about gravity being weak in our dimension and extremely strong in another dimension. She showed a shadow of a square and turned it to show the cube as the third dimension. She then talked about a hyper cube in this 4th dimension. She had mentioned this 4th dimensions being tiny. My question is does a dimension have a size?

Perception of creation and destruction : co related with big bang theory Any thing we call created is only change .ie shape .... from earth to ceramic pots. Mixing of chemical atoms in one another-like oxygen and hydrogen into water. change in time : our birth and death, change in space : one stadium is smaller than other means there is change of space inside.change of energy in different waves :........"..........gamma, magnetic ,radio,gravity, Light,sound.change of temperature means water ,vapours and ice . So if we want to create some thing means We have to destruct some thing which is pure and Fundamental.as we know by scientific means that all cosmic situation…

I'm not a physicists by any means but I have watched countless shows like the Universe, through the wormhole, NOVA ect... and I was puzzled at all the evidence and theories they had to back up conclusions from experiments. I know top scientists are working very hard on trying to figure out why things work the way they do in our universe and I have had a few ideas of my own that seem to combine them all together to help try to make sense of it all. I'm not saying they are right by any means but I was just wondering what some other people thoughts might be on the subject for fun. My thoughts from combining these concepts to make sense of how they fit together like puz…

Below is a link concerning one website which proposes ten presently "unanswered questions" of the universe. Others may have different opinions concerning the top ten most important unanswered questions. This thread proposes that you ask whatever science questions that you think are still unanswered, but important. However questions such as, what is the cure for cancer? would probably not be more informative since I would probably give similar answers than what you might be able to read on-line -- where I would also get most of my mainstream answer. I am a theorist for more than 50 years now. My field of expertise is cosmology, an alternative model, but I have a broad…

My idea is that if the evolutionary theory is correct, and that their are planets that can support life, that the dominant species of those planets would be reptilian. The reason I say this is because scientists say that reptiles and dinosaurs were the most dominant on this planet before the mass extinction by the comet or volcanic eruption. If a different planet had went through the evolutionary steps as earth did, and didn't have a mass extinction, then reptiles would be the most dominant species. And since they would be the most dominant, that means they would have went through millions of years of evolution, so who really knows how these creatures can modify their bod…

I was thinking about what would it be like to see and what would happen if a really large body, like an mostly iron core asteroid hit the moon. First if the asteroid was in the few tens of miles range would it just be a fireworks show with nothing to worry about or would it be an earth shattering event? Would the debris impact the earth I guess is the question. Feel free to give your ideas but I also wonder if the debris cloud would orbit the moon like a ring or would it go immediately into orbit of the earth or impact the earth? Also if a really large object hit the moon, 750 miles in diameter, mostly iron, like a tiny mercury but with a thin rock / "ice" …

the answer to life, the universe and everything Gravity is the aether wind. To measure the drag and direction of the aether wind, stand on a scale and look up. given Gravity is a state of force. Force is inertial pressure differential. Space consists of weakly interactive massive quantum particles. Weakly interactive means they are not easy to measure. Massive means they are subject to gravity. before you unleash the hounds of dogma Name one observation of gravity or van der vvaal's or casimere or weak or any other force that is not consistent with inertial pressure differential. in the spirit of peace ron

I have two questions, first i want to know if there is anything else other than atoms that can fill up empty space, for example if i have an empty bag, with nothing in it, can it be filled with photons, electrons, or something else? second, if you have an empty bag, but there is a mechanical apparatus that expands the bag, what will the empty space be filled with?

dear friends, just a puzzle was disturbing my mind so i thought i should ask you guys. science (physics) says that time,space ,and matter including we are weaved togather ,and time is always running ,and gone time never comes back then here is my question time (the micro second which was with us at one point) was gone than, how come we remain in present and the universe also remains . where does the passed time elopes, at which dimension of the world ,or the time itself is speculation? if my question is foolish pls ignore

Given that local spacetime is flat, there should be no possible way to measure any curvature at a single point. With no curvature, there is no gravitation. If a mass can be a point mass, it would need observations or measurements of spacetime from multiple locations in order to determine any curvature and be affected by it (eg. gravitational attraction). The minimal spatial extent of a mass must include multiple spatial points of observation (as in a particle with size, or multiple point particles somehow combined and sharing information, or a single point particle making observations from different locations). Is this a sound argument?

As we in our current knowledge of science assume that time started after big bang( I am agreeable with big bang theory only that it is cyclical and time and again it starts as big bang and collects as big crunch. ) But I personally think that time never comes in cyclical terms as big bang and big crunch but it always remain there as i.e. Electric train passes through same route millions of time but the over head wire remains stationery ,just like that time always remains stable and big bang to big crunch cosmos passes through it , There can be no creations ,only changes happens,so if you say time started after ,big bang ,personally i don't believe in that because …

ok. me thinks it is a weasel me thinks it is a qweasd po asdfgh jk az b oiuytr all three contain the same amount of level 1 info or "statistical" information. me thinks it is a weasel . this contains level 2 information or "functional information". this is the only information that matters. a sender with knowledge of the code understands the recipient must also have knowledge of the code so they share the same "medium" if you will. life only cares about this "functional information" or lvl2 info. i cannot convey a message to someone using only lvl1 information. yes lvl1 information is necessary BUT it must be arranged in a fashion such t…

Because that is when an equivalent inertia-term disappears from the electromagnetic force equation in integral form, since photons are inertia-less and the speed of light is the inverse of the square root of the permeability and permitivity of space. Traveling at the speed of light, or faster, is no different than traveling at any speed. Relativity only applies to specific conditions.

just some interesting literature on the topic i understand this is sensitive to immunologists but oh well http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/22350041 this one is imo how you design a study to yield the conclusion you want....just found it interesting..... http://ebm.rsmjourna...228/6/660.short didnt realize they actually had peer reviewed literature like the one above... <link removed> ok...chart page 3......

Hi: Vaseline consists of a 100% pure petroleum ["petrolatum"] jelly. It is usually used on the lips to protect them from dryness and the painful redness caused by such dryness. Will eating this vaseline do any of the following?: 1. Suppress appetite [due to its greasy nature]? 2. Cause the consumer's kakaa to stink unusually badly [steatorrhea usually stinks badlier than other forms of kakaa]? I believe greasy substances tend to carry odors more efficiently than non-greasy substances. This is why most perfumes and other aromatic cosmetic products tend to have oily bases. As usual, however, I could be wrong. 3. Cause the barf, burps, and belches of the consum…
