Speculations

What are miracles? Do such things actually exist? Are they simply prenomena, the act of an alien benefactor, or a benevolent GOD? These questions are ones a person might get caught up in, in their need to reply. But is there a straight forward answer?

Hi all, I have some questions about the present big bang theory and why the universe is dark. I'm not a creationist, because I don't believe in god or in any deity of whatever kind, so I just need a few seconds of your time and simple answer to my questions. 1. We know that light has a speed, we know that light emits in all directions so here is my question: why isn't universe bright then? If we can see a galaxy, than it isn't emitting light in every direction or is it? 2. Perhaps there was no big bang at all, but we are on the other side of black hole, which formed 13,7 billion years ago from the stars it devoured? Maybe to you, my questions seem juvenile…

Hello, My friend Jerry has a theory, the Comedy-Recycling Theory of the Entire Known Universe. While he presents his theory with a sense of humor and his own sense of wit, he is completely serious about his ideas and has worked very hard to present his theory in many different ways. He has two versions of the theory in an online book, several videos and very prolific blog. I don't understand his theory myself, but I don't have much of a head for abstraction or advanced scientific thought. I help Jerry with his web site and have been friends with him for many years. I'd like to invite you to visit his web site at www.cr-theory.org and have a look. I'd…

KAIDUORKHON Actually Einstein was wrong He was wrong in just about everything, His wife however was generally correct and most of the theories you attribute to Einstein were her ideas not his. In an age where women were to be seen and not heard and were considered too inferior to offer anything to the scientific community well........Einstein became her means of communication. Please don't jump all over me you can gain your own insight into this with any internet connection and an hour. Since this is such a respected forum it is only appropriate credit is given where it is due and it is in fact to the female. Not to the fellow who struggled with basic mathematics.

Why do asians have grey hair? I've seen people in my workplace who are only 18-22 years old of Indian/Chinese origin having grey hair and I'm wondering why this is. Whenever I look at their hair I often seen these having little specks of grey hair. They mostly have black hair of course but they also have a minor amount of whitish/grey hair, just wondering if there are any scientific explanations for this? I thought people were supposed to have this colour of hair when they're older?

i know someone who says that someday a system of Pneumatic tubes ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_tube ) will replace cars. this seems absolutely ridiculous to me. and i was wondering if someone could confirm how absolutely ridiculous it is and explain the many reasons why it is so ridiculous.

This is a posting of a paper currently in progress. It's been reviewed and argued to some extent on the Bad Astronomy and Universe Today forum, which helped to clarify a few of the statements in the paper. I'll start with the abstract and introduction - if it looks like my initial posts go through, I can link to or post the rest of the paper. Locally Nonuniform Expansion Pressure as a Model for Dark Energy and Dark Matter Abstract The paper outlines an early thought experiment regarding cosmology, takes it to further conclusions, and to possible predictions and problems. The model eventually involves the supposition of inhomogeneous negative pressure arising…

hi maybe i won't get a full explanation to the possibility to my idea but still i would like to hear some thoughts on my idea on moving a spaceship at the near speed of light (or possibly at the same speed or beyond, idk, this is theoretical thinking) if light could repel material we could build a spacecraft made of this material and expose it to light making it accelerate to at least the speed of light. so yeah that there is my idea. two things come to mind that would create chaos in this construct. 1- the violent instant acceleration of the spaceship when exposed to light; 2 - the disintegration of the spaceship going at the speed of light, if it resists th…

I am wondering if the inertia of particles with mass could be due to the motion of the electrons. Specifically, I wonder if an atom resists motion because the electrons are already orbiting at relativistic speeds and so when the atom has to move, the speed of the atom is added to the electrons at the point in their orbit where they go in the same direction as the atom is moving. In this sense, the electrons might resist acceleration in the direction of motion when moved. Because the amount of energy needed to increase the electron speed in the direction of motion is greater than that used while the electron is going in the opposite direction, the atom as a whole requir…

Hi: Let’s say the following Sci-Fi scenario occurs: A sample of fresh, raw [un-pasteurized, un-heated], annatto-free, preservative-free, carrageen-free, carrageenan-free, polysorbate-free, purely-natural, disease-free, completely-organic milk of a healthy happy Jersey cow [who grazes solely on natural, organic, healthy, pesticide-free pasture] is gently pumped into a hypothetical container that is eco-friendly, health-friendly, air-tight, vibration-proof and does not affect the affect the smell, chemistry, appearance, or other aesthetic qualities of the milk. The tubes connecting the cow’s udder to the container are also eco-friendly, health-friendly, air-tight, v…

I was given a link to this article by a professor: http://www.halos.com/ Unfortunately, I do not have the geology/chem background to point out the errors in this. And maybe there aren't any, but the authors are still inferring baseless 'facts'. Does anything pop out that makes this either credible or psuedoscience?

Three preconceptions for our thought experiment: 1. Gravity's effects propagate at a rate faster than the speed of light. This is demonstrated by the fact that the Earth is not thrown out into space due to the constantly shifting position of the Sun and an 8.3 min delay of "gravity waves" pulling us toward the Sun's previous position. Details here: http://metaresearch.org/cosmology/speed_of_gravity.asp 2. Gravity increases proportionately to an object's mass. 3. There is no functional limit to the distance over which gravity may have an effect (the effect decreasing by the square of the distance, of course). Imagine a Universe with physical laws iden…

Shocking revelation: Former Air Force personnel disclose UFO, alien-related threats http://www.necn.com/09/27/10/Shocking-revelation-Former-Air-Force-per/landing.html?blockID=319245&feedID=4213 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okMQq5gJ77E

(1) 'Measurement' = Wave Function Collapse (2) All 'Measurements' are, ultimately, spatial position Localizations According to GRW, "outcomes [of (Quantum) Measurements] are typically recorded in the position of something". (3) Localizations = Wave Function Collapses into attractive Potential Wells (w/ photon emission "registration" of event) Free particles' Wave Packets steadily spread out across space (von Neumann Type 2 evolution, according to SWE). Spatial Localization requires an attractive Potential Well. When a quantum 'particle' (e.g. electron) encounters an attractive potential well (e.g. nucleus, with vacant bound orbital(s)), it may "choos…

Godlike What is our common goal, seen in the world. As we are eager to understand all aspects of the world we live in, each individual doing his own part, together we strive to become godlike and understand or know it all. Mankind is searching knowledge in both miniscule and endless universes to understand how things exist, without seeing any connections for now. Once all knowledge is perfected and gathered by 1 person or artificial intelligence, We will be able to copy the creation of our planet and the universe surrounding us into moleculelair level. As i am convinced that the universe is working in the same ways as the moleculelair chemistry we think we kno…

could some of the interstellar dust grains (is that the right word) be living self reproducing molecules perhaps similar to (very primitive) ribosomes? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAH_world_hypothesis http://www.abc.net.au/science/news/stories/s603155.htm if it was just a single self-replicating ribozyme-like molecule then there would be no need for water. Water is the 'medium' in which life processes occur on earth. In space, space itself would be the 'medium'. If these molecules seeded earth with life (or at least with organic molecules) by means of comets then maybe they have seeded all habitable planets in this galaxy. If so then life must be …

wonder sometimes about the distances between...stars for example - how at times to me it seems the distance of two stars to be half the distance of two other near by stars one of those which seems twice as far from an other star, etc. like "some" seemingly chaotic layout that may or may not be extremely precise, also have noticed this in trees(especially in highly forested area)...also moles and freckles on a person, and seemingly large crowds of people themselves, maybe even in every thing as it relates to every thing else, is there an place for these thoughts in logic or have i just gone completely off my rocker? thanks for at least attempting to hear me.

MMX And The Earth's Rotational Sagnac MMX experiments are the cornerstone for proving the validity of special relativity. Tom Roberts specifies "The speed of light is said to be isotropic if it has the same value when measured in any/every direction." He then lists a large collection of MMX or round trip speed of light comparisons to prove the speed of light is isotropic or measured c in all directions. This is an alternative way of stating the light postulate of special relativity. However, the earth's rotational sagnac does not show up in MMX experiments. GPS on the other hand validates this rotational sagnac, in particular, Robert A. Nelson and Todd A. Ely, in …

so every thing is made up of atoms ok. so atoms maybe are or are not aware in some way. so atoms are in some way aware, self aware, and aware of other atoms? ok. so in some way could, can, do atoms communicate with each other? (they probably are some way in basically constant communication right?) ...so because i'm human and angela i tend to give human traits to non-numan things and we're speaking some levels below or above things being human anyway... atoms communicate with other atoms in a way like one person communicates with another person?

Retired Military Personnel To Confirm UFO Incursions at American Nuclear Weapons Sites One day, if the past is any representation of the future, I expect to see something like what happened in Iraq at the start of the Iraq war. An American high official will be on a podium outside saying that reports of UFOs landing around the capital are completely baseless and should not be believed. As alien space craft slowly pass by in the back round and aliens wave to the camera,

For the past few months I have been quietly speculating on what I think may be an entirely new means for interpreting the universe based on Occam's Razor and Aristotelian logic. In my Binary Model, the universe operates on fractal variations of 2 laws and 2 elements. Space/time Quanta The law of conservation of energy No two quanta can occupy the same space/time There are a number of interesting results of the idea in my pondering: 1) Gravity is the temporally reversed "push" of probability clouds of quanta interaction. In other words, gravity operates BACKWARDS in time and is a push. The cause is experienced AFTER the effect as far as people are con…

I do not speak perfect English. I tried to translate with my best the beginning of this article. What I propose here: Give a definition of time, space and the universe. Establish a new algebra to resolve some physical handicap, for example: a new definition of displacement independently of the concept of time which will allow us to achieve instant travel in space. It's crazy? Is it fiction? No. It's real and it is, now, the beginning of this possibility. SAIDI's Theory Definition of time, space and the universe. Towards a new algebra Any mathematical theory is based on points allowed known for some by: axioms. Euclid's geometry, for example, is based on t…

I just realised that some areas in my country are experimenting with LED lights , replacing the current fluorescent tubes. It seems this fad is on the rise. There is growth potential as they stated impressive savings in terms of energy and electrical bills. From what I see of some products, the light is kind of a glaring brightness. I'm thinking of getting one to use in my aquarium. I also found a link which seems to indicate LED can damage eye...http://www.cappels.org/dproj/LED%20Warning/Danger_of_Eye_Danger.html although I don't know to what extent. If I think about it, Lasers are definitely capable to damaging the eyes, the next is soild state lasers which are l…
