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.

    Digital Science is based on the concept that reality is virtual. Made by a computer. DS does not attempt to explain what kind of computer it is, who built it, or where it's located, it simply states that reality is virtual. Nobody in their right mind would accept that, without some kind of proof. The closest we can get to that is circumstantial evidence. And there's plenty of that. If you look. To me personally, quantum mechanics is a look behind the curtain. But there is much much more. Let's discuss it! I'll start. Don't you find it peculiar that we live in a quantum fluctuated universe of pure energy, where only the Higgs Boson makes things solid? I…

    Hello All, I'm going to open a can of worms here with what the science suggests about the dreaming brain and how it might relate to near-death (NDE) and out-of-body (OBE) experiences. If I recall correctly, it was Michel Jouvet's decerebration experiments in the late 1960s that suggested no activity occurs cortically without a subcortical neural connection. Although the goal of his experiments were to determine the neurophysiological mechanisms of dreaming, the lack of spontaneous neural activity in the cortex without a subcortical neural link was significant in that it suggests all brain activity is a result of subcortical stimuli, which appears to confirm and co…

    Case A: Ring with charge -2q turns and produces a magnetic field. Case B: A ring with charge -q rotates in the same direction as the ring in the previous case. A parallel ring with charge + q rotates in the opposite direction. Let's suppose that the rings are very thin and are very close together. Ideally we would say extremely thin and extremely close together. The angular velocity has the same modulus in all the rings. If I assume that the axes of rotation are all at rest relative to the observer and that Ampere's law is valid in both cases, then the magnetic field observed in case A and the magnetic field observed in case B are the same. Am I doing well here…

    This is speculation on my part, though i believe this because this is where the hormones are triggered in the body. This is where emotions come to rest. They rest in the head, so they can be analyzed. They may be created throughout the entire body, but I feel that they come to the head to rest so that the thoughts can define why you feel this way, to absorb the status or the structure of the body and because the emotions come here and the thoughts are generated here and our belief systems lie here and our hormones are directed from here and, because we don’t fully understand how the brain functions, we’re not capable of rewiring it for optimum health. Would anyone ca…

  9. so, I hooked up a tiny LED to a 2 pieces D sized battery in series, they are almost dead by now as they've been stocked for more or less a year. At first I was reading 7.50 milliamps, then after more than 8 hours of the LED hooked up to the battery, I read the milliamps again and it reached 39.44 milliamps. Is this supposed to happen, does this happen normally? Don't ask me why I hooked up an LED to a battery for more than 8 hours, youll probably just laugh at me or not believe me or think im stupid.

    What would happen if the Earth suddenly started spinning at the speed of light? Since its mass would go to infinity in infinitely small period of time, would it immediately turn into a black hole with infinite mass exerting such a gravitational force to start pulling the entire universe towards itself at lightspeed?

It is all what you need. You dont need bonding forces. No pulling force. No curving space. …

    First of all, I want to know how the scientist distinguish whether a virus have injected the enzyme of their target into a cell. For instance Crispr, you only need one virus to deliver the package into the cell, not two, and definitely not more than that. So how does the scientists control such a mechanism in which the virus only deliver their cargo into the cell once? Apart from this question I want to open more opportunities as to how nanomachines could act like cargo trucks for delivery within our body.

    What do you think would happen when consciousness swaps between two people? Do you think you still have the original memory in another person's brain or do you now have a new set of memories and personalities? Philosophically, if we cannot prove this then, our consciousness could be constantly swapping among each other, we just don't realize it because we take the personality and memory of the other person. But since this doesn't seems like the case, I'll need some explanation

    1. Pack a pre-built copy of your X chromosome's DNA into a virus. It is a strand of DNA with 155 million base pairs that hopefully would fit through the nucleus pore. A chromosome cannot fit through the nucleus pore, so we send it in as a strand of DNA and have it built into an X chromosome inside the nucleus. 2. Make sure each cell in your body receive a copy of the virus package. I dunno how to get this to work, each cell only needs one copy of the X chromosome, having more than one would be troublesome. The epigenetic tags on the X chromosome might also need to be different for each cell, that I have not consider. The packaged DNA would enter the nucleus through t…

  18. Well within GR paradigm GW's are nothing other than purely spacetime ripples. The better analogy then is one between sound waves and GW's. Both are distortions of a medium, and not something else propagating on top of or through the medium. Anyway there is a logical issue with GR's take on GW's as pure transverse spacetime distortions. Given GW's carry away energy and momentum, they should also self-gravitate like all other forms of energy-momentum-stress do within GR. But by definition, the vacuum gravitational field - both static and dynamic i.e. GW's, is NOT a source of further gravity in GR. Hence a self-consistency issue exists - there is an overall loss of gravi…

    So I got an external brain piece. It looks like the real brain except it's linked "wirelessly" to my brain. Yes that is what wireless connection is about. This brain piece holds the information about how to drive a helicopter, kind of like Matrix. If I turn on this brain piece and link wirelessly to it, do I automatically knows how to drive a helicopter without learning? And if I turn that brain piece off, do I forget how to drive a helicopter, or does that memory stays? P.S. But be prepared to shutting down parts of the brain

    I can explain pulsars. And any accretion disk (they're practically all variations of the same thing). And gravitational lensing. But not if we have relativity "correct". We are all traveling at subjective velocities through an objectively static particle field. This field is responsible for gravity, magnetism (I assume), and photonic wave propogation. Photons do not exist. I'd imagine the same particle controls gravity and photonic wave propogation. (And presumably magnetism but I just tack that on because I just think about things in all disciplines and I don't understand enough to attach that though it must be correct if the rest is.). The mor…

  21. Something else, our atmosphere is filled with particles, which enable sound. When you move through that, then the gravit. field is altered depending on your speed. Your speed changes the concentration of particles(which alters gravit. attraction) around you, which shortens or lengthens sound waves. This is what people call the doppler effect.

  22. Think about, when all things that are in moving, work only by rotation. When not all things rotate it would fly all in all directions! What was correct, how the gravity is working? The Sentence is unbreakable. Motors are rotating, stars rotate, galaxies rotate, the planets rotate, joints are rotating, the trees in the wind rotates about degrees, the walls of your heart are rotating at degrees too. And and and... It goes absolutely nothing without a rotation, all things would be fly away in the universe, and nothing would exist. What was the correct conclusion when all movement work only by a rotation, how will the gravity then work? Its …

    I will simply state that in this post, without writing comments later. I will read the comments that other people can write. --------- The photon is nothing more than a series of waves moving outward from a vibrating electron. Planck's constant is the a measure of the energy in the passage of one wave. However, Planck's constant is not the most fundamental quantum. The actual fundamental quantum is half of Planck's constant which is found in the half-wave of light. Each complete vibration of an electron creates one complete wave. However, the sudden movement of a vortex (such as the electron) in one direction creates a half-wave. If there is no return…

    Thanks to Charon that I've figured out liver does compensatory growth, not regeneration, but how does the liver knows what your liver mass is supposed to be? Question: If I donate 75% of my liver at age 5 the rest of 25% of the liver grows up to about 500g(100% liver mass) and it stops. Which I assume to be the normal mass for liver at age 5. If I donate 75% of my liver at age 30 the rest of 25% of the liver grows up to about 1kg(100% liver mass) and it stops. Which I assume to be the normal mass for liver at age 30. What am I trying to prove here? Oh yes, why doesn't the liver grow to 500g when I am at age 30 but instead become 1kg which is the full l…
