Speculations

But what about the deeper questions like: 1. Is there a God which created the universe or started the big bang or do we live in a completely atheistic (or Godless) universe controlled by blind mechanical forces? 2. Also is there life after death or is death the final end?

A thought experiment: Charles Babbage is thought of as the inventor of computers with his difference engine etc. This was a mechanical device. Modern computers are electronic rather than mechanical and work by having electrons flow through CPUs and other electronic devices. Is it theoretically possible to replicate the workings of a computer using mechanics?

Hi: I have speculative neuroscience question. Let’s say that the PSTSNs in my body – and the ADFNs supplying them -- don’t have any refractory period or any other protections against hyper-excitability. PSTSN = Peripheral Somatic Tactile Sensory Nerve ADFN = A-Delta-Fiber-Nociceptor Non-ADFN = Sensory-receptor/nerve-ending that is not an ADFN or the portion of a nerve that is attached to such a sensory-receptor/nerve-ending ADFNPSTSN = A-Delta-Fiber-Nociceptor supplying a PSTSN PSTSNNon-ADFN = A non-ADFN supplying a PSTSN Tactile = Pertaining only to sense of touch [including temperature, pressure, pain, tickle, vibrations, movement, etc.]…

Hello this is my very first post here, so I thought I would play it safe and put this subject in Pseudoscience and Speculations. Anyway, I like to design stuff particualrly spacecraft. I designed this particular space ship several years ago. I would just like to ask the question; given how conventional space travel is progressing do you think it would be possible to build a ship capable of travelling fast enought to explore our solar system within a ten year mission scedule. And is it plausable that such a ship could be designed and built within the next 50 to 75 years. Hope you find the images I have designed interesting. Many thanks JC

Structure of the photon he ones that have ear to hear, listen and the ones that have understanding to understand, understand : In the structure of the photon is find the answer to the unification of gravity and electromagnetism. This enunciate create the base to transform electromagnetic force into gravitational force. If the photon gets disintegrated, taking it to its minimum expression, it will be shown that the following number of sub-particles will be liberated: 1 graviton (colorless) + 4 neutrinos (red color) + 16 quarks (green color) + 16 anti-quarks (blue color) = 37 sub-particle *** Images were replaced by a moderator after the OP requested them re…

So, I was watching "Cosmic Holes" last night, and while discussing the nature of time and gravity, they talked about how clocks on earth run slower than clocks higher in the atmosphere - explaining how a gravitational field effects time. One scientist referred to the occupants in a rocket blasting through the atmosphere into space as "going into the future, faster" than those of us on the ground. So, my question is, if this was more exaggerated, to the point we could actually notice with the unaided eye...wouldn't they appear to be moving at a faster rate? Would those of us on the ground perceive them as moving even faster? Or slower? Or nothing at all? …

I was wondering do we have a space based early warning system for tracking asteroids. I know that they have radio telescopes equipped with high powered digital cameras which scan the skies for danger, but how do they compensate for atmosphere distortion with these cameras. I’m currently working on my latest idea, a deep space radio telescope. There are a few uses for this deep space radio telescope. To Track objects entering our solar system, to determine if they’re a threat. To peer deeper into the cosmos, monitor background radiation. To relay communication with any deep space vessels, thus preventing signal degradation. You could position up to ten of the…

Nothing by itself is nothing. Nothing at one moment and nothing at the next moment in time are still nothing but now nothing is relative to something existing elsewhere. When there is time there is space, and where there is a next moment in time there is next space. This would mean every point in the universe is the same point , they act independantly because every frame of reference that we consider a point is HERE/NOW relative to that point. (i.e. the only fundamental point is nothingness) So is it possible that time makes space, that space makes energy, that energy makes matter and matter makes you and me? Every point is HERE/NOW, there is no pa…

Im not sure if this classifies as true biology, however I read somewhere that it might be possible that metallic life forms exist in some parts of the universe. I was just wondering what other people thought.

I joined this forum just to post my theorem (or is it theorum) Anywho, the Axiom is gravity makes things all "sticky". Some say it's clear evidence this planet sucks, in reality all planets do and their moons as well. If the moon has a gravitational pull, and the earth does. And any other astrological body that its capable of detecting gravity on also does. One must assume, everything has a gravitational pull of some sort. Which I believe negates any possibility of "Graviton's" It's is a logical postulate to assume that gravity is directly related to mass (not to be confused with weight). (m = W/g) Sew.....one might deduce a theoretical (not to mention tot…

The big bang is only the beginning of our one and only percieved universe. While this may be true I began to think deeper into this region of science known as astrology, and came out with a theoretical understanding. What if the vastly small atom that blew up creating our universe was one of millions? I believe in infinancy to the fullest extent in that there may not have only been just one atom that blew up creating the many galaxies, stars, and solar systems we know of today... I believe that there were many atoms that blew up creating their own little universes, and there still are these little atoms blowing up creating their own universes. And as our universe may be v…

This post is an explanation of my understanding to how Einstein's relativity theory works in conjunction with time. Allow us for a minute to reflect upon Einstein's theory of relativity. E=mc². Einstein's theory states that energy equals the product of mass times the speed of light squared. From this very equation Einstein was able to theorize that time is irrelevant.. Irrelevant to everything that exists in it. Allow me to shed some light here. To my understanding (this is simply just my thought process in the matter, hopefully posting this will get me some feedback) since light remains at a constant speed we can conclude that it is essentially a constant figure …

Why do all the speculations concerning the possibility of 'time travel' presume a non-dynamic staring point, when there is no such thing? Any point on Terra is moving. It is rotating in relation to the planet's axis. It is orbiting our sun. Our sun is orbiting the center of the Milky Way, the Milky Way is moving closer to Andromena, and our glactic cluster as a whole is moving toward a point behind the Virgo Cluster. The total sum of these velocities might be something like 1/35 C. Wouldn't it stand to reason that if you were to travel 35 seconds into the past, you would reappear into empty space approx. 186,000 miles ahead of where you were, and if you stayed…

Hey. This site contains unclear theory with experiments. But Idea is briliant. What do you think about it? Paradox of classical mechanics

Hello, I would like to introduce a new vision on space and time. My suggestion is that we are "now" on the edge of the universe and that the velocity of light is actually the speed of time. The best way to tell my idea is to watch this animation I made on youtube. I think that behind the edge of the universe there will be tomorrow. I would suggest that the speed of light is the absolute minimum of time and space. Light is just like a trail while we travel into the 4th dimension. Well, let's see what you think about this?

I am sure its not a colour. I am sure white isnt a colour either. and is there such thing as particles of darkness? and do they travel and the speed of light?

Photons do not exist Litterature gives a single "proof" of their existence:the foto-electric effect. If this effect existed really , it would not prove the existence of photons. But the so called photoelectric effect is a thermal effect dependeing only on temperature. The "foto-electric effect"occurs also in complete darkness. See Nobel prize winner Richardson. who left a formula ( from about 1900 ) for the ionic emission Morp

What came before the Big Bang ?. Are we alone ? Only one Universe ?. Do universes collapse and recycle over again ?.

I believe he is wrong about Gravity and Space Time.

I didn't want to post this in the molecular biology forum or the atomic physics forum as I suspect it's probably a bit too Ps&S. Standard molecules such as H2O and NaCl take their energy to do stuff from heat and electrical charge, right? Could there be something overlooked that changes a long poly-protein molecule from something inert and non responsive into a molecule that has sufficient extra energy to combine amino acids into copies of itself? (The Ps&S bit.) What's the possibility that the structure of these atomic chains generates a specific form of energy required to do this arrangement of amino acids and such? Something that hasn't been cons…

UNIVERSAL MAGNETIC FIELD (UMF) There exist a Universal Magnetic Field (UMF) that links all matter & events within the Universe. And the Human Mind as well has a remote link to this UMF. This UMF is sensitive to: Space, Time, Direction, Matter, Energy, Light, Good, Evil, Truth, Falsehood, Negativity, Positivism, etc. The link between the Mind and the UMF is what I term as the Universal Mind. The UMF is an Extraordinary Vector Quantity; it is everywhere (Universal) but its field strength depends on its alignment (co-ordination) with the body concerned. Since there is no scientific instrument presently for detecting this field (UMF) how can we locate and utilize it to …

Allmost every planet can be habitated for explorers. The answer ? Volcanic Tubes Icall Volcanic cities.

This thread takes us back to the drawing board on QWC. The "Casual Question" thread introduced Quantum Wave Cosmology and explained that it had evolved over a few years in various forums. The purpose of the "Casual Question" thread was to see if it was appropriate to present the ideas of QWC on this forum. It turned out that this was the right place, but that thread got into advanced ideas without building up to them. The community generally didn't get engaged into a discussion of the ideas until I mentioned photon mass and that cause members to explain current theory and make reference to gauge theory, particle theory, etc. from the stand point that photon mass went …

The origin of gravitation zheng sheng ming 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,…

We speculate that observation causes the collapse of the wavefunction, but there are two primarys, wave function and observer, and one effect, collapse. One might say there are three functional elements, wave, observation and collapse, but actually only the collapse itself lends any apparancy at all. Observation causes collapse? Collapse is observation? Collapse validates both wave function and observation? I think it is hard to discern the causal principle in this relationship.
