Speculations

Speculation OK lets go! It is a kind of pseudocode, but don't wory you won't need to code to understand what I mean. Take [math]10^{100}[/math] identical sticky spheres with a 1 unit radius and 1 unit mass. Place them randomly in a finite space, give them random speed from 0 to .999 c and random directions. Defenitions: -Sticky: When two spheres toutch each other: --If the difference in speed is less than .001 c they will stick --else (>.001c) it is an elastic collision. -Momentum is conserved when 2 spheres stick together or bounced of each other. Let run the simulation! We cannot run a program with [math]10^{100}[/math] on all the computers on earth,…

There are plenty of stories that use the power of telekinesis to some extent or another and I've always wondered just how exactly that's "supposed" to work, if that was possible. Particularly energy. Would it be a manipulation of matter to cause a release of energy? Or would energy somehow be controlled directly? IOW, if I'm a "Fire Starter", like in King's old novel, what exactly is "supposed" to be happening that enables me to start a fire? Am I really controlling matter, causing molecules to vibrate or heat up and spark a fire, or could I really control fire itself? Sounds like I'm asking about the intent of the author, but I'm not actually. I guess I ne…

i think that the earth revolves around me discuss j.k but seriously.... how do we know how fast were moving... if the big bang did happen.. then we are like.. moving at the speed of explision itself.. w.e that is.... but unless another force acted upon us... like a force EQUAL to the big bang.. then w…

I have designed a new device. http://unlimitedenergy.i8.com/ Please keep comments on the power enhancer.

http://coflight.blogspot.com/ -- Give a thought to it.. is there any better way to define the speed of light.. All praises to the lord of all worlds.....

This is also about quantum mechanics. Severian Very often people come to these fora with a belief that our current theories of physics, such as the Standard Model or relativity, are flawed and present some alternative of their own. On the whole, this is a fine attitude to take - we should always be skeptical, and it is good if people can think a little 'out of the box' and generate ideas which more standard thinkers may not have come up with. I have always thought that genius was not an ability to think 'better' than everyone else - it is an ability to think differently from everyone else. However, when coming up with a new theory it is important that it should b…

Do you think that ghost really exists? Many people and cultures around the globe have their own story about ghost. There has a theory that ghost only a wavelength. I never see ghost before. But one night I can feel the existence of this creature. I can feel a strong magnetic field around my house. But many of scientist and other people deny of this creature. That is not very easy to explain about this creature. Maybe one day there have an explanation about this mystery.

I have a question that is purely speculative in nature. Is it possible to view the big bang as anti/gravity? ( the repusive force ) I never really liked the fact that gravity was attractive only. Being an accountant I like the concept of balance and symmetry and everything being accounted for.( action/reaction; attraction/repulsion; left/right symmetry; etc. ) So I was wondering if the expansion of the universe ( which I guess is still going on ) is the anti/gravity and our regular gravity which is attractive are equated? I would appreciate the members thoughts on this. Thank you, Profpat

I apologize for bringing this sensitive issue to play especially if this topic has already been brought up: Did we land on the moon? there is alot of speculation about it so i decided maybe it would be best if i ask the ones with brains. Apparently the counterevidence to us landing on the moon are, but not limited to: -lack of blast crater under the LM -lack of background noice from the rocket during decents while astronaughts talk -pictures of different missions 5 miles appart with the exact same rock formations -lack of rocket plume from LM in video when take off back to the shuttle -the crosshairs in pics have some objects in front and some behind -the wh…

I often wonder what it would take to design a small dimension capable of supporting human life removing the factors of gravity and the ability to make a physical plane not residing in the universe. I always imagined this dimension to be nothing but 4 dimension, 3 spacial and one time, in an empty cube several hundred miles in height, width and depth. I ponder questions like these.... -How to create weather cycles -Designing an artificial sun -Supporting plant life without the use of a sun -How to manage air quality with pollutation related substances let off into the air. as well as a few others. I always imagined this world filled at least a mile high…

THEORY ABOUT THE ARTIFICIAL ORIGIN OF SYSTEM EARTH-MOON-SUN Who we are, where do we come from and where do we go? I will expose my theory. The life is the most remarkable characteristic of the planet Earth. The base of the life is the water, the vital liquid, without which the life so and as we know it would not be possible. In addition it has a property that withstands almost only to other compounds and chemical elements: when happening of the liquid state to solid its density diminishes what does that the ice floats and allows to the life in the seas and frozen rivers. Studying the water the man fixed the temperature scale between the ice and the steam of water…

Big bang........ sends everything out into space at unimmaginable speeds hydrogen moving at unimmaginable speeds out fusion accuring... the star.. and hydrogen are moving at unimmaginable speeds... light on the other hand.. stays PERFECTLY at the 1 point in space it was left galazys form.. moving at immaginable speeds... but spinning at immaginable speeds also... the sun and earth.. youd think that the earth wudnt hit light becasue its on the wrong side... but you forget that the galaxy is spinning at speeds unimmaginably shoot it down pls.. i kinda wan…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lud1qceKqyQ Yet another aww shucks lone non-scientist inventor accidentally discovers a way to burn salt water while trying to cure cancer. He seems to meet the general requirements of a crackpot. But I'm curious as to what's going on here. Can electrolysis be caused by electromagnetic radiation, as opposed to actually running a current through the water, and how is it producing enough hydrogen to actually create a flame? And how can it be pumping that much energy through the air but still be safe enough for you to stick your hand through it?

Unlike most theories on the construction of the Great Pyramid, this one might be right. The theory by French architect Jean-Pierre Houdin is featured in the latest edition of Archaeology, publish by the Archaeological Institute of America is a doozy. The idea of an internal spiral ramp is the best I've heard of and if true will solve a 4,500 year old mystery. It would also show the Egyptians to be greater architects and engineers than we ever thought.

This video on You tube has a very radical theory WOW http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjgidAICoQI lets chat about it...I am dying to

Good evening all, I enjoy reading your forums very much. I am looking for a group of users who may be interested in doing some amateur research in Theoretical Physics.... kinda vague, I know. Basically, if you consider yourself more a philosopher than a physicist, enjoy a metaphysical approach, consider our current knowledge of the physical world to be full of useful information but WAY off the mark of a TOE, but are prepared to do some mathematical work and experimentation when we're ready, then you're what I'm looking for I want outside-of-the-box thinkers... I want a person who can take his nose out of a book and lift his finger off a calculator and use h…

Note: I use science, I trust science, believe it will improve our lives and the lives of our children and their children, and so on. However, step away from your immersion in science, empiricism, reason, and logic for just a moment, and consider the assumption you are making. Every piece of information you have ever received, from artwork to mathematical laws, has come from one source: your senses. How reliable are our senses? Well, in dreams, you must conclude that they are outright fooling you. The scary part? You don't know the sensations are false in a dream. In movies, you see and hear (and one day perhaps even feel, taste and smell) the sensations. A…

I read some yogis ( saints ) can perform levitaion ( ie floating in air aboave the floor by controling of breath) and some can walk on water? Can this really happen? Can science explain these phenomenon?

Here it is. http://www.unlimitedenergy.i8.com/

Am I correct in thinking (or remembering) that the total amount of energy/matter/etc. in the Universe worked out to be exactly zero? Things like matter, antimatter, darkmatter, and the Higgs field? Perhaps, if the Universe does turn out to be infinite, the Big Bang was the equivalent of reality "dividing by zero"? Yeah, I don't really have a point I was going to make. The concept just amused me.

Straight line pressure and circular energy The cosmos is described in my dictionary as a well-ordered whole. Having spent many years trying to understand these words I have now come to the conclusion that this well-ordered whole is both eccentric and concentric because of straight line pressure and circular energy. That is, straight line pressure forms the inside of a sphere whereas circular energy forms the outside of the sphere. This combination can be seen in the pressurisation of a balloon where inflation can be seen moving away from the mouthpiece up a cone of time while the centre moves along an unseen straight line (black hole) relative to the magnitude of the…

Hi everyone; I have an idea regarding strings quarks and the 8 internal dimensions rolling up to 3 dimensional space. please look at it at the link atnd comment. Idea-file.pdf

What's the general consensus on this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_reply

As an amateur philosopher, I've tried making sense of reality and so this idea comes from a very basic set of priorities, but is devised to explain the spectrum of human experience, not just mathematical models, or scientific disciplines. It has drawn the gamut of responses. Given this is a science forum, this is the extended version; Points, lines and planes supposedly have a zero dimension. Well, 1x0=0. What they really have is a virtual dimension, not zero dimension. While a point can presumably be dimensionless, it is still a specific point of reference. The real zero for geometry would be empty space. It is the potential for any point, not a specific one. Also,…
