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.

    Hello everyone. New guy. I think this forum's rules are wound a little less tightly than some, but I will apologize anyway ahead of time ... just in case. And of course if you wish to throw me off the site .... I need help. I am not all that bright even though I have been contemplating the universe for about 50 years. A fairly respected cosmologist/astrophysicist offered me 'serious consideration' and probable funding through his institute if I can devise an experiment supporting my model. ( not my first offer ) This in response to the letter I sent him that follows. Many scientists have looked at my model, and none have found ( or bothered to tell me ) a critical…

    I was just wondering with all the advancements in genetics over the past few years if its possible yet for nanite to completely build a DNA molecule. I dont have any education in genetics yet because I'm still in high school. I know DNA is A's, C's,T's, and G's. I was thinking that if the information was loaded into a computer that had all the information for a particular DNA molecule that it could program nanites to build it. I think this might be to futuristic though.

    Could it be- a new way of thinking...Using other parts of the brain? Maybe over the year's we as humans have forgot the true meaning of life? Money and material goods are seemingly controlling our lives and also corrupting it. People get paid on TV nowadays just to be happy- when there are little kids dying each day of hunger, but these so called "icons" do not acknowledge it. Our government is run by these officials but we do not know what is going on behind close doors. We watch the TV day by day and listen to these people, but we still do not have a clue what is going on in our government, and in the world around us. We all kind of live in our own little world.…

  5. How I Became World's #1 Einstein Groupie by K. B. Robertson A Brief History of a Series of Discoveries In the experience of this author there are two histories of the evolution of physics. The objective history that was established by the men and women who contributed to it’s progressive evolution, and the subjective history of this author’s learning of that evolution and then recognizing and authenticating an unprecedented statement - previously proven but continuingly unrecognized on the foundations of physical science. Discovering that Newton’s gravity is Einstein’s 4-dimensional space time continuum did not happen in premeditation, or all at once, o…

    This thought experiment is modeled after the train/embankment thought experiment of Einstein. There will be two observers, O and O'. The only change is to turn the problem into a 2-D problem instead of 1-D. So, each observer is centered in a circle, the two circles are of rest radius r and are in relative motion along a common x-axis. Similar to the lightning strikes, the O circle has lasers at every point aimed at the origin O. Now, when O' and O are coincident, the lasers on the circle of O all fire at the same instant. Conclusion: 1) O will see all the laser strikes as simultaneous. 2) O' will not see the laser strikes as simultaneous. [Edit: Las…

    I really must put this into a general category because no other category on this form is related to actual science in my view, in fact all of the standard model, cosmologies of science is repugnant. Thus, i pose this topic as a general science topic. All of the universe is electrical / magnetic in nature, I know that all moving bodies in space can be described as a form of electromagnetism not gravity. Primary solar rays as Tesla described are emitted by the sun and are harmonic and relativistic explanations that the sun is governed by a underlining from of nature that exists in the universe through the media, as understood to be electricity. The sun is of plasma, whi…

  13. All other forces, special cases of gravity. How can we prove? Black holes. Here are the best proof! Gravitation can compress and break up the matter at the subatomic particles. It is obvious that gravity is the main form of interaction in the universe. There is a formula: E = mc ^ 2. (F = G * m1*m2/r^2 - Newton's gravitational formula.) Gravitational waves have a speed of light "c". You can ask two questions. What exactly interacts force of gravity? With a mass or energy? Known effect of micro lenses, when a black hole deflect the rays of light. Light rays consist of photons. Photons have no mass. However, the photons have only energy. S…

    Is it possible that within a Black Hole mass has converted to energy that is to say that we observe the effect of the Black Hole energy value (not the Effect of the Black Hole in mass values). Therefore in the Schwarzschild radius equation m should be replaced with E. This would mean that the Schwarzschild radius equation for mass would be m=r/2G (r=2Gm).

    Re: Surely this is a case of QT 'point like' and classical 'volume'. Put a (point like) stone on a piece of string and drop it in a pool of water, classicist observe the wave that expands in all directions away from the stone, but Quantum theorist continue to observe the stone and see that when the stone is removed the water fills the space previously occupied by the stone and therefore quantum theorist observe ‘wave collapse’. That is to say the views of QT and classicist are not incompatible; both are correct but different observations of the same photon wave action. The implication being that the observer cannot observe both the stationary point wave action …

    Here is a new Universe for thinking about in 2010. Wishing everybody all the best. We begin with a simple diagram (i love that): fig.01 We are living in Space at Present Time: the red spot in the center. the universe is there around us. Where is it? We know that all that we can observe belong to the Past.We cannot observe events from the future, and Relativity says that we cannot see anything from the present either, because information is always transmitted at speed max=C. So here is the Observable Universe: fig.02 Great. But, wait a moment: The Universe, by definition, must belong to Present Space, isn't it? So, the "real" present Universe must be as …
