Speculations

Hello, first time posting here. I had an idea that was irking me and I would like as much input as possible. I'll just copy-paste something that I put on another forum (not this site). I'm sure some people will be disgusted at some of the logic, but I just want clarification. I do realize that it's all hypothesis with no real mathematical proof, I simply don't have enough knowledge in mathematics to even get close to trying. I'm all ears though, so if there is some mathematical formula to shed some light then I'll try my best to understand it. The basic question I want answered is, "Is Zero a real number?" (insert gag reflex) My train of thought first…

Sorry for the vague descriptions, it's all I really have. Essentially my friend watched a documentary that he didn't remember the name of, and someone who is considered a psuedo-scientist who claims to have done reverse engineering an alien spaceship parts said that aliens traveled faster than light with an element not far from ours in the periodic table which could distort the fabric of space time in a special way as to allow the passage between points faster than light. Mathematically however, this has been confirmed to be theoretically possible, but this was before the "warp drive" or when Star Trek become popular or before it was even invented really. There's also r…

@ most of the velocity is in the time dimension : i am toying with a notion that spacetime is made of: time and space, in which space is discrete and in between theese discrete 'points' of space time is building up.http://www.sciencefo...ns/#entry675842 @ standing still in time (as it does) while the rest of the "solid" universe speeds away : the dilaltion as measured by cosmological redshift is in my oppinion an effect of the buildup of time in a discretely spatial space-time. Again both notion seem similar. But when you say "stands still in time" you are actualy reffering to my "travells ony thru space-dimension of space-time". @ has been liberated from…

Just a whim. Everybody here has an opinion. What if science were totally objective in the sense of no personal opinions about what is correct science?... Just the most classical epistemology of what we know and how we know it? That would be a whole new 'science forum', and I have never seen one that was impersonal, beyond opinion, and encouraging *civil* discussion of all science, including all disagreements. Alternative titles were 'subjective vs objective' science and 'what is objective science?' I've seen no transcendence of personal opinion yet in this forum. This discussion can become more specific, but I'll leave it open for now. I'm not allowed t…

A hypothetical de-synthetisation of spacetime as a synthesys of space and time. Question: is there space for time? Answer: Only if space is discrete. The hypothesis: In spacetime space is discrete, time is a quantity that is building up between points of discretely distributed space. Gravity holds things in place localy, but on the scale beyond gravitational effect, time has an effect of "stretching the spacetime" noticed by cosmological redshift. The universe is getting "bigger", but only in the sense of buildup of time. This gives us infinite time in both directions. The galaxies in this stretching space-time are drifting apart from each other faster than …

hey now i will point u all 2 a real proof of astrology there is a scholar from harvard named richard tarnas and he wrote a book that is like my bible called COSMOS and PSYCHE it is not refutable i will give u all the link - http://www.amazon.com/Cosmos-Psyche-Intimations-World-View/dp/0452288592/ u skeptics can NOT disprove this many have tried none have won

srry i was absent ive been working on my own thing ill respond to u all soon but ive been working on my proof of ufo

Hi: I'm currently thinking about a fabric with the following characteristics: A. Water-proof B. Oil-proof C. Liquid-proof D. Grease-proof E. Stain-proof F. Particulate matter – such as dirt, ash, dust, sand, mud, etc -- do not stick to the fabric to any extent G. Drops of any liquid – water, oil, alcohols – do not stick to the material to any extent [even if sugar is dissolved in them]. They slide right off. H. Air-proof – air molecules does not be able to go through the fabric I. Odor-proof -- material does not absorb or let odors through it F. Non-shiny G. As elastic and tough as spider-silk F. Smooth enough to act as a solid lubricant [one should be …

I have been thinking about a great idea to make use of a largely untapped source of energy to get free energy and thus reduce global warming. Here is how it goes. A lot of household heating systems are gravity fed, ie they have a boiler at the bottom which heats water, that hot water rises and passed through pipes and through radiators cooling along the way until it is eventually fed back into the bottom of the boiler where it is re-heated to begin the journey round again. Now (drum roll) here is my brilliant idea......... What you do is place mini turbines inside the pipe and so they produce electricity from the waterflow through the pipes!!! …

I can already feel the blood thirsty stares directed at this thread (and possibly at me too), ever ready to pounce and fire the stockpiles of accumulated arsenals for topics like these. The fact that this is my first post in this forum doesn't help very much, does it? I would like to state that this thread would require a bit of, for the lack of a better term, open-mindedness. Warning: This is going to be a very long starting post, and there are reasons for this. You've been warned! Before I proceed to the main body of the discussion, allow me to state a few qualifiers, and perhaps even set a few parameters for discussion, as a topic such as this can…

Science took a wrong turn. It all took a wrong turn with the missed understanding of the double slit experiment in the 20's. And along with the discovery of the universe is expanding that took everyone away for Einstein's work that was right ON , but no one would pay attention to him any longer. Well with the new MIT very high speed camera I know that the 1920's experiment can be turned around and be totally understood and fully predictable. And GR and QM can be expressed in a consistent language. Part #2 And yes Einstein’s Cosmological Constant can explain a static; 1. The planet moon systems. 2. The solar systems. 3. The galactic…

Theory of Time.pdf In addition partial derivatives of this function can betaken to find the change in time based off the change in frequency, acceleration,and mass. I will put a 3D version of the graph on later when Ican make one. Tell me what you think of this. The first page of the pdf will need to be rotated, but the rest are right side up.

What about this then. I belive that once a photon has been liberated from an atom it no longer has any velocity in the time dimension. All matter is traveling through spacetime at c, in the case of matter most of the velocity is in the time dimension. When a photon is emitted from an atom it is mearly dropped off in 3D space, standing still in time (as it does) while the rest of the "solid" universe speeds away at c, giving the observer the impression that it is the photon that is moving away at the speed of light. The photon, being an oscilating electromagnetic wave, appears to any observer wizzing by to be a sine wave, but that is only the view of the observer (simi…

The Big Bang theory is a mathematical model that has to rely on two principal observations to be seen as fact-but both of those seem unsafe. 1/Redshift-From the redshift of spectral lines we can conclude that objects are generally receding. Dark matter,dark energy inflation all rely on the assumption that redshift is a reliable indicator of radial velocity- I can`t see how it can be. 1/Critics mention Compton Scattering as a contributor to redshift 2/The K Trumpler effect,known since 1911-The well documented,accepted,but ignored apparent phenomenon that O,B type stars are receding to a much greater extent than other spectral classes. I must also mention that I…

When I watch these pop-science shows with people like Michio Kaku, I keep seeing them say say that the universe originally expanded faster than the speed of light because it's actually bigger than 13.7 billion light years, which they try to explain with various theories such as dark energy, but with a pretty universal property in quantum mechanics, couldn't that infinitely small thing that it was at the moment before it big banged be very or perhaps infinitely delocalized and thus make the universe bigger than what light would expand to be? I suppose you would need to be able to describe the entire universe as a single equation though... High mass in conventional QM woul…

The link below, I think, is a well-written discussion of the theoretical problems in cosmology today. This topic and thread is for the discussion of these problems. Discuss known alternatives such as MOND etc., or speculate without bringing up too many details of an unknown model such as your own or providing links to such models. For this, your own new thread would be better http://www.scilogs.e...k-matter-crisis

Virtual reality applications can be of two types. In non-immersive virtual reality such simulations are used to simulate destroyed cities or other things like Titanic etc where as in Immersive virtual reality individuals see the world through the eyes of a virtual body which exists in a virtual reality environment. See Immersion (virtual reality) With the kind of advancements that is taking place in developing new synthesizing haptic, visual and auditory physical models achieving realism which is indistinguishable from the actual reality we are not far away from having our own virtual bodies in cyberspace.

1. Master Theory - relativistic theory, because it is the same problem ("Electrodynamics of moving material bodies"), which solved the Einstein. 2. Einstein gave the absoluteness to a cross-scale, but not to the time. In Master Theory time is absolutely (absent "Twin Paradox"), than it differs from Einstein's Special Relativity Theory (SRT) - a cross-scale is absolutely. But this difference has profound implications. (For example: in Master Theory are absent "Twin Paradox" and "Ehrenfest's Paradox".) 3. Author of Master Theory (Alexander V. Masterov) has proved that the problem (that are solved by Einstein) has an infinite number of solutions. SRT - only one of th…

Hey! Somebody I know said: "The universe exists. The universe has a beginning (big bang) and an end (freeze). The idea of it collapsing again is absurd, what would cause that? The universe couldn’t have created itself, as it had to have been in existence first (common sense) in order to have done so. So, something OUTSIDE the universe created the universe. The universe is all space, time, and matter (theory of relativity). Something outside time created it. Could be an abstract idea, but have you ever seen a number affect something? What else is outside the universe? Nothing. So, nothing comes from nothing (common sense). Nothing isn’t the creator. So, it’s a dis…

Time, motion, and Thought. To explain time you need motion. To explain motion you need Thought. Remove all motion from the universe and what you have left is stuff. In the beginning the universe needed something to get the stuff moving. That something is Thought. Thought is not stuff, but has always been and, for all practical purposes, always will be. As motion and time began so too did all of matter. A single thought produced what we now call matter. That thought came from a whole bag of thoughts called Thought. Thought is not perfect. Thought is not divine. But it is real. The only real thing that has no motion, no energy, and no dimension is Though…

The dynamic model of the globe has proved: sharp change of weights (Ms / magma / a nucleus of a planet) - during occurrence of the Earth in Solar system why at this parity of weights began the new natural phenomenon - during a presence of the Earth in Solar system (~ 800 thousand years) has proceeded ( 9 cycle) of this natural phenomenon, at last, why with the beginning of IV stage is a natural phenomenon temporarily has stopped - in more detail on a site ---

In nature we see magnets attracting each other even though they`re neutrally charged,we see neutral atoms combining exothermically to from ionic lattices and covalently bound molecules,diamagnetism,paramegnetism..All this points to a conclusion that substances will tend to align themselves so that they will attract each another.It might be a minute effect in comparison with the electromagnetic force,but when considering large numbers of particles,we get something quite substantial as the effect doesn`t cancel out.Is this conclusion correct? In the everyday world where the particles are comparatively static we can see dipoles in common molecules like water and magnetism i…

Do people, hopefully not most; look at life and their surroundings as a drag? Through a jaundiced eye, so to speak. Are they nothing more than Lemmings looking for a cliff to leap from? This is not meant as a religious or atheistic venue to spit venom, so let's keep it simple. I would just like to have your opinions and thoughts on the question. So, I will stay out of it entirely. Pardon, but I did change, "WE" to "THEY". I will only make changes to my initial comment if necessary, but no suggestions.

Hi: Let's say the emotion of anger -- in all mammals [including humans] -- were to suddenly, completely, and permanently vanish. What would be the effects? Would it be a good thing to lose the emotion of anger? What would be the drawbacks of the elimination of this destructive emotion? Thanks, GX

I have a couple things id like to say first This is a very young concept I am not the most educated, otherwise i wouldn't be asking for help I am in school so i can develop this idea further i won't post the whole thing online yet, nor in this first post this first post is me asking: is this a site for just discussion or actual formula development? I will post the basis/starting ideas then i will dive further when i have more time, work and school take quite a bit of time. maybe later today maybe tomorrow. there is more behind these 2 ideas and 2. i thought was obvious and my addition is the influence behind gravity, the earth is pulling itsself away from itsself e…
