Speculations

Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.

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.

  1. In this link, near the end of the video, Matt O'Dowd explains that thermal black holes can be created in a vacuum by nothing but solar radiation - given one can absorb 20% of the sun's total energy output into hematite to generate such a powerful laser. Early in this video, we see in the physics programmed into Universe Sandbox 2 says about the vast amounts of energy contained within very narrow laser beams, with a typical laser pointer beam narrowed to about .1 nanometers will cause small parts of the earth's surface to be vaporized. Then it occured to me we don't need to consume entire planets in order to make thermal black holes, we can ju…

  3. The analysis of the quantum structure of the five atomic elements composing the coded twenty amino acids and the four coding nucleotides of DNA working in the organization of the genetic code reveals an opposition of their respective constituents in always an arithmetic ratio of value 3/2 according to the parity of the number of their quantum shells. Also, the quantum analysis of the amino acid Glycine, the smallest component of peptides that can be confused with saturated base, reveals the same arithmetic oppositions of 3/2 value of its components by the differentiation, operated according to their number of protons, of its five chemical groups. Genetic code, quantu…

  4. Speed is not a feature of gravity this means the universe does not have a speed limit. In other words "c" in "e=mcc" should be calculated as "c=f(G)", why? Well we know that c is a "special speed" which defines "difficulty to move at that speed" But we also know that galaxies move away faster than "c", then we know that "G" defines the "difficulty to move" Connecting all of that: Galaxies are able to go faster than c because they have lower G which means a higher c Cosmic expansion may also be cause partially by an "outer sphere" in addition to this. That is the lower G gets the higher c gets, so in this way we can fix relativity without…

  5. ---The Brief Introduction of Magnetic Field--- More than 2500 years ago, man had found magnetic interaction and make use of it; 200 years ago (July 21, 1820 A.D.), H.C.Oersted declared that magnetic field is related to electric field; In the next 75 years latter, Ampere, Faraday, Lorentz etc sum up various magnetic interaction rules, their achievements all hint that magnetic field is related to the motion. In fact, Oersted, Ampere, Faraday, Lorentz had discovered all the basic nature of magnetic interaction (1.electric field, 2.motion), but they all didn't pay enough attention to it, didn't organize it systematically, the scientific climate changed later, became to…

  6. Quite plausible actually, not just in principle. In the inertial frame X of some planet in a galaxy 27 billion light years from here (distance measured in frame X), the universe is currently (simultaneous with us now) about 30 billion years old. Yes, the universe for such an observer would be quite different from what we see here since for one thing it appears to be over twice as old. Much more mature galaxies and such. Yes, we do know of galaxies moving at sufficient speed for this. The one I mention above would have a redshift of about z=1.3 as viewed from here, and the record holder is over z=11. Yes, I realize I'm replying to posts fr…

    The time period of evolution There will be a cycle of mutation after every 9 generation, the evolution is a slow process and it will move on, but we can't see directly because the change taking place is very slow, but if we look at the 10 generation of older than us we could see it.The mutation (evolution) takes place gradually and it can be seen at a regular intervals (10G gap) Law behind it : There will be a gene difference between father and son, ie the gene similarity difference is 0.1 and the similarity difference between the gene that we get from father and mother is 0.1. When the genes are transferred from one generations to other there will be change in …

    This below is an attempt to explain my conception of the mechanism of Time. The beginning is quite simple: You have two friends A (Alex) and B (Beatrix) resting next to each other. There is no motion, only time passing by. Alex looks to Beatrix. Since light takes time to travel from Beatrix to Alex, Alex observes Beatrix as it was a slight instant ago (slightly in the past). I can make the following diagram, where the vertical axis is Time, and the horizontal is Space. At T=0, Alex observes Beatrix at a distance & at T=-1 graph 1 But at the same time (T=0) Beatrix looks at Alex also at T=-1 (the situation is symmetric). Thus we also…

    My intuition of the functioning principle of the woodward thruster is the intrusion of mass into a region that has begun the appearance of virtual particle pairs. This remaining component of the duty cycle of the particle pairs are necessarily changed, and by this, a partial violation of the Pauli exclusion principle causes certain novel conditions. Since the pairs need symmetry in their outcome, that is denied, and the final annialation behaves differently, or is distorted. This releases energy to the degree of the percentage of violation of the Pauli exclusion principle.

  14. "Dark matter can be explained by the quantum vacuum of quantum chromodynamics" Gilles Cohen-Tannoudji. Here is the path taken by the particle between singularity and final matter: In the case of this deduction and reasoning, the dark matter must be expressed only with a particle at very high speed. Dark matter is only an addition of the convergence of the quantum vacuum at a point (an area). The density of dark matter is proportional to the convergence of space towards this singularity.

  16. I have a new theory about the origin of earth. I believe our planet came from someplace else and when it passed our sun it was caught up in the gravity pull of our sun and now circles our sun like the other planets. Our planet began totally covered in ice. The frozen state could not have occurred in its current orbit because of the heat of our suns radiation. The Snowball Earth hypothesis proposes that during one or more of earth's icehouse climates, Earth's surface became entirely or nearly entirely frozen, sometime earlier than 650 Mya (million years ago) during the Cryogenian period. https://preview.tinyurl.com/ybzpbae7 Snowball Earth: The t…

  17. I strongly believe this theory. I think that we infact live in a 5th dimensional hypersphere. Perhaps the universe we perceive was created by a black hole singularity. A point in which the 4th dimension could no longer contain the energy within, collapsing in on itself, creating a white hole on the other side. A fifth dimensional hypersphere, only observable as a sphere from our perspective, but it's own big bang within. Anyone else think this is a possibility? It sure would make the universe seem alot more infinitely large.

    Just curious a couple of questions, kind of looking to be proven wrong so feel free to do so. Is it possible for the 11 dimensions in string theory or superstring theory to be classified hypothetically by saying there is an antiverse to every universe (I know this isn't generally accepted because of anti symmetry isn't generally accepted) But if it were and there was a parallel antiverse is it possible mathematically for the spacial dimensions to be described as -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5. My question is more or less is there any way this would conflict with string theory, or M theory. What if the extra dimensions are parallel and not compactified? This also kinda a…

Hi, Planck's mass density = [math]\frac{m_p}{l_p^3}=\frac{c^5}{G^2 \hbar} \text{ }\frac{kg}{m^3} [/math] is assumed to be the maximum density in relativity with the mass-energy equivalence of GR, we have: Planck's energy density = [math]A=\frac{m_p c^2}{l_p^3}=\frac{m_p l_p^2}{l_p^3 t_p^2}=\frac{m_p}{l_p t_p^2}=\frac{c^7}{G^2 \hbar} \text{ }\frac{kg}{m s^2} [/math] [math]A = \frac{m_p c^2}{l_p^3}=\hbar c l_p^{-4}\text{ }J/m^3[/math] [math]A =\hbar c (l_p^{-2})^2=\frac{c^7}{G^2 \hbar} \text{ }J/m^3[/math] (1) By dimensional analysis, we make the hypothesis that [math]l_p^{-2}[/math] can be replaced in (1) by [math]\Lambda_{m^{-2}}[/math] to…

  21. Hello A clarification above all. I would use here the values of the results of the Planck mission published in 2015, in particular : [latex]H_0=67.74 km/s/Mpc[/latex] Hubble constant [latex]\Omega_{\Lambda}=0.6911[/latex] density parameter of the cosmological constant of the epoch hence [latex]\Lambda_{m^{-2}}=1.111*10^{-52}m^{-2}[/latex] cosmological constant expressed in [latex] m^{-2}[/latex] that is to say [latex]\Lambda_{s^{-2}}=9.992*10^{-36}s^{-2}[/latex] when the cosmological constant is expressed in [latex]s^{-2}[/latex] and [latex]R=4.359*10^{26}m[/latex] radius of the universe observable still with the results of the 2015 period But…

  22. What is a Krauss Object ? It is an object (or observer) in the far future, that will not be able to have any evidence of the Big Bang (my definition). Eminent cosmologist Lawrence Krauss explaing standard cosmology here answers some questions and says the following: So as it seems our common understanding of cosmology has created a model that predicts that future observers will be unable to understand the Universe the way we do today. Does that mean that Nature does not play fair?

    Sometime between the Paleocene and Eocene epochs, there was a mysterious, sudden, dramatic rise in global temperature. This moment in time was known as the "Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum", shortened into "PETM". In just 20 to 50 millennia, the temperature rose by five to eight degrees Celsius, and this heatweave persisted for another 200 millennia (that's just the mean estimate.) While its impact on terrestrial plant and animal life is well-known, the focus of the thread is on how the PETM impacted the aquatic ecosystems. The warmer the water's temperature, the less oxygen it can hold, resulting in ocean anoxia. And since water has a low albedo, it absorbs c…
