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.

We know that during the big inflation that distance was spreading faster than light. So I'm thinking that maybe the big nothing that existed prior to the universe was an infinate flow of faster than light expansion existing along side fields of faster than light contractions. Perhapse charge, wich can exist without time or distance per my understanding, comes from the friction of these two fields of basically nothing more than momentum. Perhaps the positive and negative charges canceling each other out causes a disturbance and this momentum to spin into tiny little vortexs. The low preasure zones of these vortexes might cause like charge to condense into electrons and pos…

It has recently come to my attention that space and time are not the same thing. So I'm wondering if time is an energy that occupies space? Does it eleminate the true vacuum of space? is it some kind of force field residing in and disrupting the true vacuum of space? If so does this field have an associated particle like all fields according quantum mechanics? Are length, width, and depth, dimensions relative to the time field density they occupy? Do you think virtual particles exist in virtual (nontime) space and that when they hit the surface of a timed space they draw together and pop like and air bubble coming out of a field of water? could the universe be descri…

Atoms with its electrons, Properties of the nucleus in the atoms, makes the potensial wave electrons. I belive gravity on a small scale inside the neucleus makes the potensial wave electrons outside.The electrons is like a "ghost" particle which only can have potensial energy, it will never acrete matter to it, instead it directs the formation of molecules. Planet is like a big atom, outside it has its electron (moon). The moon was first a potensial moon, a "ghost", because i belive gravity made the potensial moon, so it could acrete matter to it. Sun is like a huge atom, and our planets are its electrons, they of course also started as potensial planets aka "ghosts…

This hypothesis is based on the fact that, in terms of the general theory of relativity, space-time is curved according to non-Euclidean geometry. Especially noteworthy here is that the curvature of space-time is applied uniformly to all physical phenomena of the micro- and macrocosm. In this way, elementary particles can be described in approximation as "Einstein-Rosen bridges in miniature format" which have both particle character as well as wave character. But in addition,the development and structure of the universe can also be depicted based on this understanding in this paper. Thus, with the help of the general theory of relativity, this hypothesis succeeds in des…

First of all, I am taking the liberty to send my thesis. It is known that Einstein's theory of relativity is established on Michelson interferometer experiment. However, people have great difficulties in finding a more satisfying answer to explain some unaccountable paradoxes like “Queer circle of grandparent and grandchild” or “Self murdering of newborns” derived from this theory. In that case, my thesis will temporally give up questioning the logical issues. Instead, it will propose a new theoretical viewpoint according to the optical homodyne of Michelson interferometer experiment from a perspective of space dimensionality. This new point can help to explain all questi…

What Caused the Big Bang? We know that a Big Bang happened, but how did it happen. Nobody really knows, but I will hypothesize one idea. My idea is that we were created by another universe with a black hole and any universe with a black hole can create another universe. So, how is it possible that a black hole can create another universe? Let’s begin on how a black hole is created. A Black Hole is created when a heavy star, more than 25 times heavier than the Sun, has no means to withstand its own gravity as it dies; collapsing into a black hole. So, now how can a black hole create another universe? If the weight of the heavy remnats of the star, causes the …

owl said, "Clocks keeping time at different rates is a different issue than asserting that "time itself" is an actual medium/entity which differes in each and every local inertia situation." Correct. Atomic clocks tick based upon the physical state of the space in which they exist.

Consider this, do you think it's possible the force creating life is inside of light? I know how it sounds but when you consider that light is an actual thing of matter, as (einstein believed) and also that the original life was created with both water and light from the sun, maybe some "light matter" becomes somehow connected with the water and life is created within, forming mold or whatever (plants), the only thing that could live soley off of water and light(evolution), and as we can see eventually creating... us. do you think this is within the range of plausablity. Afterall there's nothing else explaining why life starts to exist. What else could make a lifeform…

I don't believe any laws of physics must be revised: Briefly, the GTME (Gravity Theory of Mass Extinction) posits the following: 1. Today, the Earth's continental land masses are disributed fairly uniformly around the globe. In the distant past (e.g., when Pangea existed) the distribution did not have this uniformity. When there is a change in continental distribution, several things happen concurrently: a. A wobble of the Earth will occur. b. Nutation damping of the wobble will commence in order to return the Earth to a minimum energy status. c. The nutation damping can take different forms. If the continental redistribution changed the …

Someone much smarter than me will have to come along later with ultimate answers, but I believe this theory is right on target. What if the stuff between our material Galaxies and throughout the universe is actually what we refer to as, dark matter and to includes anti matter, dark energy and anti energy? What if this "repulsive force" is being generated from a growing central point and whipping the universe into a hyper-drive? I know, such nonsense gives no established credence for why our universe should be speeding up, but that's exactly the case for my thoughts. If the material we speculate as halos around galaxies is dark energy, it may make the cause for what we con…

A new theory on Gravity reveals the "Missing Link" between quantum physics and relativity theory – by Skip - year 2010 To everyone. The following is a new theory on gravity and reveals a vital missing link which directly connects quantum physics and relativity theory, plus how this theory helps gets us closer to a unified theory of both physics and the forces of nature. You should find this quite interesting. My theory states that gravity is more a "pushing" force rather than a "pulling" force! This theory further states that the force of gravity does originate from matter, specifically atoms, but that gravity is not a direct pulling attraction but…

Imagine a volume with flat spacetime, inside of which is several particles whose movement is described as a random walk. We would expect that the particles would approach even distribution, just as gas pressure approaches equilibrium in a container. Now imagine that the same volume consists of highly curved spacetime. For this thought experiment, let us suppose that the volume looks to us, as outside observers, as a long uniform cylinder, but from an inside perspective, the volume looks more like a cone, where one end of the cylinder is wide and the other narrow. From an inside perspective, we would expect that the particles would tend to evenly distribute, …

GR -- dumb matter in motion dwells in static space-time ("fixed fabric") GR, ignoring the uncertainties, inherent in matter, according to QM, models matter & spacetime as a single, static 'fixed fabric', spanning all space, and all time: QM -- compounding possibilities, extrapolated forward into the future, yield a Many-Worlds-scale, ultra-multi-faceted, possibility tree According to QM, fundamental particles typically exist in a 'ghosted-out phantasmal' state, of being partially present, at many places (or, in many super-posed states), at one time. And so, the quantum 'choices' inherent, in every spacetime event (x,t), mutually compound, clear…

The aether is, or behaves similar to, a frictionless superfluid with properties of a solid. 'Superfluid Is Shown To Have Property Of A Solid' http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/1999/07/990730072958.htm "Northwestern University physicists have for the first time shown that superfluid helium-3 -- the lighter isotope of helium, which is a liquid that has lost all internal friction, allowing it to flow without resistance and ooze through tiny spaces that normal liquids cannot penetrate -- actually behaves like a solid in its ability to conduct sound waves." '"Faraday's finding was the first indication that light and magnetism were related," says William Halperi…

Take it to the next step. There is no time. 'Scientists suggest spacetime has no time dimension' http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-04-scientists-spacetime-dimension.html There is a similar article which I can not find which states time is similar to money. Money has no intrinsic value. We place value on money so we don't have to barter. Same with time. Time has no intrinsic value. We place value on time so we understand past, present, and future. My analogy is a battery operated clock. You own a battery operated clock. The clock begins to tick slower. Has time changed or do you replace the batteries? You replace the batteries because you understand what occurs…

I came across a definition of a white hole as a "time-reversed black hole." I assume that a white hole would only let light out. However, this doesn't make sense to me. If you have a curved geodesic contained within a black hole event horizon, wouldn't light travel along the same path whether it was going forward in time or backward in time? It seems to me that spacetime curvature would determine whether light etc would be confined to a space, or unable to enter that space. A time-reversed black hole would be gravitationally identical to a black hole. Perhaps its spin would be reversed or something, but essentially its influence on the universe would be the …

Would it be possible to harness energy from the orbit of moons? I had an idea about extending alternators to near the orbit of the moon and having a solar powered magnetic field generator built on the moon so when the moon passes close to each alternator it induces a current in the device, the energy then transferred back to earth, would this be possible, would the power generated by too negligible for it to be practical? If we could build that, would it work?

Humans, By ScottTheSculptor The evolutionary step that created humans was the ability to store emotional information in their memories. But first. The main evolutionary drive is logic. Yes, the ability to survive is underneath but the only "advancement" in that ability is provided by logic. It is logic that a stronger predator has advantage over a less strong, a faster herd animal will logically survive one that is slower. Every creature on the planet takes sensory information and "decides" the appropriate action warranted from that collected data. If food is detected a creature has to perform a logical sequence of tasks to procure it. Even an act as simple a…

Why don't black holes combust? It's probably pretty obvious that it doesn't have a purity of combustible ingredients. Is it possible for the most massive stars to be greater than the smallest black holes? Probably doesn't even come close. So, do you think the impetus for creation of a black hole is just the amount of matter that has conglomerated and once it reaches a certain level of mass, maybe it just collapses in on itself, breaking the constituent atoms into a dense mess of particles? Without a fusion ignition occurring, this would probably take a while and have to be pretty massive before it collapses.

No, "making Jupiter a star" doesn't have anything to do with Roman divinity and Hollywood movies. I am wondering if devoting energy and effort to transforming Jupiter into a star would be a viable means of extending the life of Earth as the sun and Earth's core cool. I realize that at some point, the sun is predicted to supernova, at which point it won't really matter to anyone on Earth what Jupiter is doing, but would it be beneficial to ignite Jupiter at some point between now and the end of the sun?

I´m trying to work out a way to have a system of measuring the date that is not limited by the rotations of planets etc. Something that is not necessarily local and could be used to give a universal ´date´across, well everything. The problem I keep coming up against is the huge distances involved which seem to make it fairly meaningless to say it is X at this point everywhere. Because I suppose, any measurements somebody was making would be based on old light reaching them... Basically, does anyone know of this being done already. Even if not universal, at least galactic? As in something that involved the curent positions of stars according to each other, or the r…
