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. I Will put here one theory about microbiome. The theory is in spanish, but you can translate with Google translater. I only want that this theory finish in hands of any scientist or biology that could prove it. Thanks and sorry for my bad english, i Will answer the questions that you have. https://www.burbuja.info/inmobiliaria/threads/solucion-al-deficit-de-omega-3-acumulacion-de-metales-pesados-y-exceso-de-radicales-libres.1043197/

  2. I'd like to start here in the Speculation forum. If it withstands scrutiny here, maybe I can move to a more formal forum. It seems I've been able to derive quantum theory from logic alone. And the wave function turns out to be a mathematical representation of material implication. There is a way to create a type of path integral using propositions and logical operators. It relies on the fact that a conjunction (logical AND) between propositions implies an implication between those propositions. Every point in space exist in conjunction with every other point. And when each point is represented by a proposition (that at least describes the coordinates of that poi…

  3. Hi. I've long had a personal theory on evolution that, given time, it is inevitable that evolution builds larger brains and higher levels of intelligence, perhaps to some limiting factor beyond which there is perhaps some increasing cost in terms of fitness that ultimately levels out that progression, which we as a species probably haven't reached yet. It does so, because a bit more brains have a net survival benefit to many species that, for example, a longer beak to exploit a (relatively) new resource recently appearing within an ever changing environment does not have in the long run, a resource that will soon be gone again. Yes, examples of static species (like sha…

  6. Hello All, I have an innovation that I’d like to patent. I believe I have conceptualised a reaction-less propulsion system that would run on electricity alone. My innovation is only in the hypothetical stage as I have no way of creating a working model. I am looking for an entrepreneur/developer to take my innovation from the hypothetical stage through to the patent stage. I would want to retain 100% ownership of the patent giving exclusive usage rights to the developer for only 1% of the gross revenue as royalty. I’m new to this forum and I apologise if this post is inappropriate for this section, I mean no disrespect to the forum. Please refer me to corre…

    The computer has a clock, and a quartz controlling this clock that could be overclocked. The brain, while not function in terms of binary, should also have a clock based on my speculation. While part of the brain regarding consciousness should have a circadian rhythm. If you overclock the brain, what do you think would happen? Well, the consciousness would not exist if the frequency goes above a certain speed. But apart from that region of the brain regarding consciousness, which is at the pons, the rest of the brain could run at a faster rate. The electronics retrieve information in terms of 0s and 1s, but the brain does not have 0s and 1s to retrieve and pass on, you ju…

  8. The Discovery and Utilization of Relativity Energy --A Whole New Energy Source My theory and experiment are inspired by war battles in ancient times. Picture this scene :warriors on horseback brandishing machetes dash toward enemy infantry troops, slashing all soldiers in their path. Suppose a horse gallops at speed a, a machete is wielded at speed b, then an enemy is slashed at speed c that puts a and b together. If not on horseback, a warrior wields a machete directly at speed c, the energy needed will be 1/2mc2. Suppose the mass value of the machete is 2,then the energy consumed is c2=(a+b)2. If the speed is accelerated in two steps, with additional acceleration b…

    In a recent thread there seemed to be some confusion as to what would constitute Evidence in regards to UFOs and aliens. I am a bit unsure myself, so I ask exactly what evidence would make you have to consider aliens as the cause of a UFO incident? Would there have to be a landing on the white house lawn? Or would a good film be enough to make considering aliens reasonable. Now days, with things like cgi, photoshop, drones, and military tech I would think it would come close to requiring a landing in times square during the new years eve celebration. But is it reasonable to require that much evidence before aliens are a reasonable consideration? Past sightings…

  10. A vector of “incremental distance” (in 4D) has a change of direction with no change of magnitude. A component of incremental distance may be associated with a component of acceleration. This is the “Schwarzschild vector”. Simple transformation should give the Schwarzschild metric.31 The Schwarzschild Vector.pdf

  12. Okay so to begin here is a paragraph about superposition. Superposition is the combination of two waves at the same location. Constructive interference occurs when two identical waves are superimposed in phase. Destructive interferenceoccurs when two identical waves are superimposed exactly out of phase. ... An antinode is the location of maximum amplitude of a standing wave. Next is a paragraph about a bose einstein condensate. Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), a state of matter in which separate atoms or subatomic particles, cooled to near absolute zero (0 K, − 273.15 °C, or − 459.67 °F; K = kelvin), coalesce into a single quantum mechanical entity—that is, one that …

  13. For those who does not know what cold welding is, Google it or look it up before you post here. The idea is if you put two metal pieces together inside a vacuum chamber without the oxidative layer, a bond would form between the two metals and fuse them together(I am not sure which type of bond). So the story goes, if I put my hand into a vacuum chamber and touch the metal, would they fuse? Keep in mind that our human body is made of carbon and water.

  14. I am a mathematician; has analyzed the following parts of the special theory of relativity (SR): - time dilation - Lorentz transformations - Michelson-Morley experiment - twin paradox, and more ... All my research shows that SR is nonsense. I would like to ask physicists and mathematicians to review my findings and show me why my research leads to this conclusion.

    In my view, the secret to understanding science is through variables, math and the logic that governs language. For example, if you consider the statement "The ball fell down" You get a scientific scenario, whoely provable by exact science that There was a ball existing in t1 And t2 through t3 it executed the scientific process of falling down, obeying the laws of gravity. But the statement 'Fall the ball' doesnt make sense So language and variables it incorporates makes perfect scientific sense and indeed the groundwork for further scientific research. I contend scientific laws are parallel to the variable logic inherent in language. Now th…

  17. Started by Curious layman,

    I personally think that human intelligence/complexity is a double edged sword, it's allowed us to become advanced, but the next stage of human evolution is space, and space is the most extreme environment there is, it seems impossible to practically get humans out out the solar system, too much energy, we need stimulation, prone to disease, food, water, vitamins etc... Its this reason I think the next "branch" on the tree of life won't be a more advanced version of us but more of a devolution, just basic life forms, microbes that we send of towards planets in habitatal zones, after that I think the next branch will be new civilisations. What do you think? Do y…

  18. Here's an interesting idea. The undersea is full of space. It is also full of sodium chloride. Now what happens when you pass Carbon dioxide over sodium chloride? You get a beautiful reaction full of carbonated results that sealife and seaweed find very useful to grow and reproduce. (There's one type that doesnt mind greenhouse gases at least. Imagine that, Al Gore the jellyfish. Haha.) OK, so carbon dioxide UNDERWATER doesnt cause greenhouse gases, or any kind of harm to the natural envioronment, but rather it does good all around. Is that an argument in favour of starting underwater factories? One way this could be done is through oil …

  19. ABSTRACT Topic is centred in Relation of Riquelme de Gozy that is part of relations fulfilled by electrons excited (LAN Theory). Article exposes a new concept of excitation lines based on orbital quantum number and, after relativistic effect inclusion, progressively increases sensitivity in energetic values of electronic jumps to be able to predict said values and discern possible errors included in the references. KEYWORDS: Excited electron, Energy level, Relativistic effect, LAN, Relation of Riquelme de Gozy.

  21. One of my many theories deals with the creation of the earth. I contend it happened inside the sun as a bal of unsynchronous energy parameters relative to the suns own energy spectrum, and was consequently cast into orbit. What do you think of this idea?

  22. The proposed method, explaining the 11-year solar cycle, is based on an unusual theory, according to which some fundamental physical constants, including the speed of light in vacuum c , which we consider universal for the entire Universe, have different values in the spheres of influence of other stars, planets or space objects. Analyzing this theory, I assumed that for any two space objects that have gravitational attraction and revolve around their power centers in accordance with Kepler's laws, their speeds of light c1 and c2 , and gravitational parameters µ1 and µ2 are interconnected by the following relationship: (1) According to this relationship, t…

  23. One of the results of SR is time dilation, TD. Check for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation There and in all other books I read about SR there is a relationship between the time t' from S' and t from S. S and S' are two inertial reference systems that move relative to each other at constant speed v. Here I indicate this relationship: t' = tγ where γ = 1/(1-v2/c2)1/2 is called the Lorentz factor, LF. My question to you: Is it true that the concept of time dilation is depicted with this formula? Yes or No.

    I am working on an essay regarding what we can say about what form alien life might take. My thesis is there are things we can plausibly say because life—and if such life achieves sentience, any technology they might develop—will be constrained by the same 94 naturally-occurring chemical elements we have at our disposal. Some scientists seem convinced that the first evidence of intelligent life elsewhere we come across will be their artificially intelligent, robotic avatars. Barring science-fictional biological entities that secrete *unobtanium* from their pores to fabricate spaceships, it seems to me they will have to somehow extract pure metals from the ores contai…

  25. I dunno if it is the artificial sugar or natural sugar that does the trick. But if you don't believe me, just start taking or if you already did stop taking sugar for a week and you will know what I am talking about. Other food suggestions are welcomed, like lemon? I am not sure if lemon does the trick as mentioned in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy".
