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.

    Elephant: The First Primate? April 16, 2012 Humans and elephants appear to be evolutionary versions of the same species quite closely related on the family tree. Take another look and consider that humans evolved from elephant ancestors. Our big brother is still with us today. Note the opposable thumbs. Despite their large size elephants are otherwise just like ourselves and our skeletons are basically the same. The hands of the elephant are just like ours complete with opposable thumbs. Gomphotherium sp., early elephant ancestor [3.6 - 13.6 mya] still had enamel on its incisors/tusks which might be an indicator of when our two species d…

  3. What would be the fate or the future of our universe? Will it expand to infinity? Or stop expanding or start to contract? My thoughts joining space time, expanding universe and black holes led me to think of a new idea about the future of the universe. Let me explain it. Lets start with space time. Albert Einstein's theory explains to consider about a fabric like a trampoline as space time. And any body with mass would create a curve in this fabric which any other body near to it is attracted to it like a whirlpool. And black holes are the remnants of giant stars which is collapsed to a point because of excessive gravity. So a black hole in this space time would cre…

    In this world of difficult times, where we struggle for answers to where our future may lie, myself I have looked within the rainbows to find answers that cannot be found elsewhere, and to this I have come across some strange and wondrous findings, that I feel compelled to share with like minded people who are like me, are interested enough in searching for answers that we dont yet have. Look I have some data that I hope you find interesting, if not perplexing, and its a little revolutionary, as it steps back in time to some, findings made by others that when I recheck these findings I find a different result, as to why, well this is part of the complexity, for if …

  7. Science may not know size of anything around us, do to some un-known dimensionless unit called the fine structure constant. http://en.wikipedia....ucture_constant From what I understand it is a dimensionless unit that somehow allows scientist to be able to distinguish multiple copies of fine color spectra used in Quantum Electro Dynamics among other theoretical models. I also understand it describes the forces of electro magnetism, if this is so and I assume it is coupled with the fact that electrons are virtually copies of each other, then I think it is legal to question the science community as to why even use the fine structure constant in the first place?…

  9. Hello all, We already had discussion about Stephen M Phillips,who claims to find correlation between superstring theory,kaballah and theosophy.You know my deep dislike about the notion of "shadow matter" and "subtle bodies",especially where 2 goes together.This is what Phillips try to reconcile.The reason I opened the new thread is that I don't want to put your attention to WHOLE article(which was the point of previous article).I'll post just one piece of the article,that bothers me right now,and then will post how I try to deal with it,hoping for your help.So,please,don't read the whole article,read only the part 6 is named "The UPA as a 11-brane". http://www.smphillip…

    I saw a dream yesterday in which a very ordinary indian civilian goes to a shop of computers. He then sees that no one is near him watching. Then he with his mind power gets a internet access inside his mind. He has the option of accessing any internet mail account and even its secret password through other minds that he perhaps surveys. He then opens a email account and without touching starts open a printer in his shop as if it were connected with his mind internet email access which he has opened like infra red. Then he prints the email he likes on the page thru printer. And even deleted the email. Is this internet is all about testing mind's power from usa to india?

    I just read the word "prepper" used in my newspaper for people prepairing for travel. The growth of "doomsday prepping" has introduced a new word into our language. (Perhaps you've seen the "prepping" series on the National Gegraphic TV Channel). What is your theory as to why so many people who look ahead see no hope? Is it justified? If you think it has always been this way and that its just a media fling, try listing all the world problems that are not being effectively dealt with . . . advertising link to blog removed

  13. It is seldom questioned that all the components of the universe remain inperfect relativity to each other at all times. Understanding the finer pointsof this relatively is open to hot debate, but few suggest that the nature ofthe universe is inherently chaotic and unpredictable. This is reasonable asscientists have been able to ascertain 'laws' and make 'predictions' regarding avast plethora of observable phenomena over the centuries and so we feel confidentthat all as yet unexplained issues will one day be solved. My question is how is the consistency and synchronization of the universemaintained? I have come up with three possible answers to this question 1. Al…

    According to the Law of Bio-Complexity, life evolves increasing complexity (forward in time). Ergo, early earth life was simpler (life devolves to decreasing complexity backwards in time). Now, the most complex non-biological (organic, carbon-based) chemistry, occurs in "bio-tars", black-brown organic goos, composed of carbonaceous compounds constantly chemically reacting (McFadden. Quantum Evolution). Given sufficient quantities of "goo", and sufficient time to chemically react, bio-tars become "Belsteins" (to quote Prof. Urey), i.e. they come to contain essentially every conceivable organic chemical (even if in trace amounts), indiscriminately interacting, via every …

    Dear Sir, As I am unqualified, I am urgently looking for a cosmologist or theoretical physist who can help me with flaws in my Big Bang alternate, so it can be published on arxiv.com. It is based on the premise that all energy wants to entropize. All the forces and matter are simply energy trying to revert to their original "at rest" state [medium].This medium, still outside our universe, is a sea of energy in the form of straight string at absolute zero with a quiver of waves moving through it. It is best described as a super BEC [bohr Einstein condensate having infinite quanta in the same space.] or as Einstein described the space matter density at the centre of a bl…

    The origin of gravitation zheng sheng ming(郑胜明) Abstract In the natural world, people have discovered four kinds of forces: the electromagnetic force, the gravitation, the weak force, and the strong force.Although the gravitation has been discovered more than three hundred years, its mechanism of origin is unclear until today. While investigating the origin of gravitation, I discovered that the moving photons produce gravitation. This discovery reveals the origin of gravitation. Meanwhile my discovery indicated that light interference fringes are produced by the gravitation which is created by moving photons. In other words, my discovery…

  18. Hi: "Mental Salmonellela" is a hypothetical disease that only affects all parts of the brain that constitute the psyche. All non-psychological parts of the brain are totally-unaffected. Here is what happens in "mental salmonella": Multicellular-units consisting of one cell of each and every serovar of each and every subspecies of each and every species of the bacterial Genus of Salmonella enter the patient's brain. Following such entrance, these units then multiply until there are enough of them to surround all the neurons in the patient's psyche. Following this, each and every cell of each and every serovar of each and every subspecies of each and every speci…

This is a link to the area of interest : http://en.wikipedia....iki/Spin-%C2%BD I have often wondered if these numbers of 1 and 2 , could infact be represented by other variables ie [matrx A] [matrix B] as A=1 and B=2 But before I dive into this, could any professional scientist here tell me if these numbers of 1 and 2 are just as simple as this with no other units added to them???

Besides the obvious, physical-invincibility includes not needing to eat, drink, sleep, or eliminate waste products as well as being able to contract/relax muscles without any exhaustion. A successful violation of the second-law-of-thermodynamics and many others. Here is what I would do: I would force society to …

This in rotation creates energy by itself yet the problem is that power is needed to make it amplify. So, place this in a structure like a building like an antenna to receive transmited energy by via satalite orbit in kentic energy harnessed to a similar transmission of energy to the earth to these antenna with the technology that already exist such as telecom satalites. In addition to this is the rotation of the earth that contributes to the energy being harnesse…

  25. Consciousness And Particle Distinguishablity. Since it is not possible for particle distinguishablity, then how does science understand the nature of the human mind? We all know that the human body including the mind itself is made of electrical responses, some even governed by the rules and laws of the famed "Pauli Exclusion Principle." It is fact that two people cannot penetrate each other, unless circumstances are made for such. In this case the act of sex, personal physical attacks and other grotesqueness of human evolution. However, within the "general case" how would scientist "measure" what differentiates human "distinguishablity" via human conscio…
