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.

Do you enjoy the fact that when you join a forum you become a second class citizen denied free speech and freedom to choose what you read? So can we take an a vote on this ie indicate is you prefer censorship or freedom of expression? So vote either "freedom" or "censoeship" at the end of your post (or otherwise). Also give your reasons if you wish too. My vote - freedom!!!

I'm not sure if this is an original idea, but here it goes- I believe woody plants and snowflake dendrites are 3D solid copies of electric field lines of force created by like charged particles flowing through the plant and snowflake. This is a long story which started 12 years ago when I was doing electric field lines of force research and I just wanted to see if anybody is interested. Jade

The odd thing today is that many people seem to think evolution is a God given fact when in fact it is only a theory, ie unproven.

Does this now mean that there could be any possible outcome from an event, and perhaps many outcomes spiral off into other dimensions that we don't perceive. I like the idea that UFO's are extradimensional objects that we perceive in three dimensions http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTJsRi-4wdk This one for instance is akin to the idea of a 3D rotating cube passing through a 2D world : where the inhabitants of that 2D world would experience a 2D morphing shape : is this the kind of thing we are experiencing with some UFO's and if it were, how could we possibly prove it considering their ephemerality.

I was thinking the other day(if you can believe it), after hearing how supernova flatten out when collapsing and then explode, emitting two jets. For some reason I thought of an analogy using two plungers being put head to head, with the handles representing the jets. If the plungers are pushed together, the heads flatten out, but when pulled apart, they form a suction/vacuum. I thought about this as it applied to a star. What if it is not the explosion or stars density collapsing that causes the blackhole, but the vacuum created by the pull of the two sides bouncing back after the explosion, that form the jets? Could a blackhole just be a place where a perfect vacuum exi…

Midwest Tornadoes Link to Solar System Record Week Of Twisters Hit America's Heartland NEW YORK, March 5 (Reuters) - When at least 80 tornadoes rampaged across the United States, from the Midwest to the Gulf of Mexico, last Friday, it was more than is typically observed during the entire month of March, tracking firm AccuWeather.com reported on Monday. According to some climate scientists, such earlier-than-normal outbreaks of tornadoes, which typically peak in the spring, will become the norm as the planet warms. A that times Planet Mars Aligned with Sun and Earth BANDA ACEH Earthquake Link to SOLARSYSTEM BANDA ACEH, Indonesia (A…

Revolutionary New Theory Suggests the Laws of Physics Evolved GRAND HAVEN, Mich. Mar 07, 2012 Mark Greer, astrophysics ponderer, suggests a revolutionary new theory that the laws of physics may have evolved over time. Assuming the earliest universe was completely dark and void of everything, and that mathematically represented a perfect zero, Greer asks, “how did we go from zero to where we are today?” Greer believes the reason there is something, instead of nothing, is because of imperfection. “This is not a new concept”, he says. “Fluctuations from 0 into +1 and -1 or any other set of balanced equations make it perfectly plausible for something to come from …

Spontaneous creation by accident is absurd. There must be processes in place that enable energy to organize into more complex forms over time. I have watched every documentary ever made and never saw anyone propose a theory that did not involve a theory that we started with the big bang. In fact, they all talk about it as if it were a settled fact. But recently I had a realization that our universe requires more of a cause and effect explanation. So this is my 3rd Topic post within 1 week suggesting the universe evolved in some way. I just discovered tonight that I am not the first person to suggest that the Universe Evolved. 33 top scientists signed an open letter to…

Less than a novice in cosmology, 97% of the time I wander aimlessly looking for something about a cyclic universe. My own answers come as thoughts that on occasion seem to have merit, at other times, so so and some; Nada at all! Then I go on Google and find this, "Junk". These men are supposed to be accompolished scientists, or at least someone thinks so in order to get them in print. Personally, I find this "Pronking Theory" scarier than the Big Bang. Actual Theory:http://www.physorg.com/news89399974.html In Reality:

Just wanted to share this,Please share the below very very important article with as many people as possible: A real gravity /magnetic engine is not a Perpectual motion machine!I am myself inventing a non -Perpectual gravity engine!People think falsely that gravity and magnetic engines are impossible but it is not true!They are mostly mislead by cheaters claiming to invent Perpectual machines or claiming to invent such engine that are Perpectual for us!These cheaters and non intelluctual conventional minded people have made our scientists life miserable.Very little people believe in us real scientists because of the psycological thinking that gravity / magnetic engines a…

G'day superball, I'm the new one here this time. This has been one of my favourite topics for well over a decade now and I have much to share about this once my regulatory number of posts has been met. A little different, my vote is for torque free 'illusionary' wobble of the tilt of the Earths axis. Apparently somewhere between 146–130 BC, Hipparchus started the investigation into all of this after he examined the changed positions of several bright stars previously recorded by Timocharis and Aristillus over a century before. He concluded the stars were moving in a grand precession. Much later, as you know, after the fighting died down and it was agreed …

Gravity is the resultant dynamic of entropic field interaction(s). Energetic systems are propagated through space and time along entropic potential geodesics, energetically attracted to and falling into states of favorable higher entropy. I have a field theory and everything.

The Big-Bang, Dark Energy, Einstein's Cosmological Constant, the Cosmological Principle, and the unnaturally young Age of The Universe are all man-made fabrications with no relation to reality. What's Real? Gravity. Now you may think of Gravity as a distortion of Space-Time, but for the purpose of this argument, I'm going to call it Gravity. The Expansion of the Observable Universe is Speeding Up. If we were going out, we'd be Slowing Down. As it is, we're Speeding Up, and that means we're going in. That's not me, that's the evidence. Modern Scientists say Gravity is the weakest force because the Big-Bang works better without Gravity. To Newton, on the other ha…

Pi, solved.. The reason pi is infinite is because people forgot what pi is actually describing - a lie. from 2d to circles to 3d spheres, nothing has a perfectly smooth or round surface. Just like in computer model space, a true circle or sphere cannot possibly be created, it's simply more and more sides to a polygon that only appears to be a circle or sphere. imagine if you were on a computer, drew a circle, then zoomed into that circle so much that you could see the single pixels, it would always be a collection of straight lines. If you take a measurement of something such as a round lid in the real world, no matter what measurement device you used such a…

While not a climatologist I do have a graduate degree in biology. And, there is no way around the fact that biology and climate are related. I also keep to date in readings. My nature of work involves a lot of traveling so I get to learn the views of many people. Now,the very groups of people that promote human caused climate change are among those who have indicated that such events as sun spot activity have earthly effects, that there has been a shifting of the poles,that geothermal activities cause dust particles to rise into the earth's atmosphere limiting solar radition..et al. Paleontologists have come to conclusions that Antarctica at one time was tropical due…

If the following things are true about black holes: A black hole is not a finitely (however enormously so) steep depression in the fabric of space-time, but in fact a hole that leads to another point in the space-time continuum. For the length of a black hole's existence all matter drawn into a black hole exits at the same point in space-time. IE: The black hole does not simply erupt matter continuously throughout its entire existence, from formation to eventual deterioration, at the same rate it sucks it in, but all matter for all of its existence erupts at the same point in space-time all at once (mini-big bang) All black holes everywhere lead to the same point in…

Hi, Was wondering if, through the ideas of quantum consciousness in terms of the way in which we are capable of having experience through the pre-conscious to conscious processing of values of qualia etc embedded at the planck scale. Would that mean it would be impossible for us to have, as sentient beings (here and now), spiritual experience etc or anything beyond our ordinary realm of experience - not excluding spiritual experience as normal experience though - if, as a thought experience, we found ourselves enclosed within a void of nothingness. As in a space where there is absolutely nothing else but us - not worrying about air or anything. Since, the informat…

The Twin Towers were marvels of structural engineering when constructed. Nowadays, it's well accepted that they were built in a highly redundant fashion using far more steel than necessary. The structures were built to withstand the impact of multiple large planes, and there is no evidence of faulty construction. The manner in which the towers collapsed, as proven through a huge amount of video evidence from a multitude of sources, is such that they simply could not have possibly have not been demolished but in a controlled manner through the release of a tremendous amount of energy during the collapse sequence. A self initiated collapse, even taking into account the …

Hi: Let's say I suddenly develop a hypothetical medical condition that causes the cells in my body that normally-synthesize sympathetic-stimulants [such as catecholamines] and pro-inflammatory chemicals [such as histamine and cytokines] to instead synthesize morphine. Second, this medical condition eliminates any/all bodily mechanisms that specifically cause any psychological or psychologically dependence of, addiction to, or tolerance of morphine. Third, this medical condition eliminates any/all bodily mechanisms specifically responsible for withdrawal of morphine. Finally, this medical condition causes the development of mechanisms that prevent there from being any …

this concept is always disturbing my brain ,as we go back before some 10000 years or so we were hardly able to start cultivation .this all realy started 600 yers or so but the modern science and its inventions realy started benifitting since 120 years or so from 0 to particle collidor is not possible without the help of some energy or life from outside the earth and deliver it in the form of intelect, machines and its uses know hows.

If you have 2 gravitons,the inverse square law says they will accelerate towards each other,if you can not travel faster than the speed of light,therefore when 2 gravitons that are attracted towards each other reach the speed of light,they must be touching.They must also be the minimum distance possible apart(1 graviton diameter) and have the minimum possible mass?
