Speculations
Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.
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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Hi. Some questions have been installed in my head. 1. In what is transformed a material subjected to a pressure that overcomes the atomic cohesion? 2. There are tables dedicated to the maximum pressure that each material supports without losing its basic constitution. 3. There are enough data on our planet and other astronomical objects to calculate the pressure as a function of the radial coordinate, inside the body of the object. In the case of our planet, it would be the pressure at a point below the planetary surface. 4. Is there any known material, natural or artificial, capable of withstanding the pressure in points that are deeper than a certain limit? …

In the animation’s right side (or half): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MichelsonMorleyAnimationDE.gif Why does the red (ball) go faster than c? Speed (v=d/t) is distance (d) per time (t). & the left animation (clearly) shows that the red ball moves (diagonally (up & then down)) faster than the wave(_speed c). (Simply compared:) The ball is moving faster than the waves. E.g. That (right_side’s red) ball travels more distance (diagonally); than the waves (can) do in the same amount of time. I.e. longer (diagonal) path, compared to the horiz…

This thread is simply an application of Newton's gravitational law and of the two corresponding shell theorems. Why have I decided to place the subject in Speculations? Because in this section, if a debate is initiated, there is more freedom to expose opinions. In physics we can take the laws and theorems individually. In that way we obtain pieces of information, comparable with the pieces of a puzzle. Sometimes a problem requires applying laws and / or theorems jointly. This minimizes the amount of free parameters and, for that reason, reveals details that do not appear in individual applications, or in cases that are resolved by applying a less numerous set o…

Without considering Earth magnetic field(the charged ball is only attracted by gravity), It does not emit radiation. The key point is: any charge accelerated by only one force will not emit energy. IT emits energy only when it's being decelerated. Or when it's being exerted by more than one force. A typical case is that the charge is running in circular track. The charge gains energy while being accelerated, releases energy while being decelerated. Without considering Earth magnetic field(the charged ball is only attracted by gravity), It does not emit radiation. The key point is: any charge accelerated by only one force will not emit energy.…

The universe is too perfect to just come about by any kind of random actions. The idea of a pre-existing matrix from which the universe emerged is not the beginning of the universe. This would just a mark a phase of the universe becoming. The statisitical probability that the universe just appeared by itself is a virtual zero. I have worked out the probability and there is just no way it could occur randomly, no matter what some would prefer. Science is not based upon taboos, just observations and data. If it is taboo to say that there was a pattern to which the universe complied then science is wrong as this is the only true explanation, If that requires a God for some …

11 hours ago, Capiert said: If I multiplied force by time, instead I would get momentum, which I would prefer (& trust more). Swansont suggested (from my Fiv thread) OK. Solve some problems involving thermodynamics with conservation of momentum. Go ahead. Try it. Or even a block sliding down an inclined plane with friction. Or an elastic collision, without involving energy. That, too, has limits on practicality. Here goes. A few assumptions are necessary. Collision takes time: While colliding the 2 balls are: in contact with each other for a specific duration time (amoun…

Goal: To use the parallel nature of a cellular automata and convert it to an infinite grid with infinite speed. The idea is that a single long line (infinite) in B3/S12456 breaks up in space consistently while sweeping past the screen, it has to sweep past an infinite traveller that criss crosses through the grid outside the bounded area in an imaginary area that relies on the way cellular automata are. All cellular atuomata fractally decrease in size so if you have large worm shapes at the start, they get smaller and smaller with no real change. My idea is that by having a line sweep through, you can make an infinitely large grid of the same basic pattern repeated, bu…

I am very about of open source science. Seriously. Thats why I dont apply patents, but publish free so everyone can benefit. How come, when the whole ecosystem is collapsing: including human gut microbes, that money is made and not science to benefit all? Corruption in this case, simply means: the original idea has been distorded. Thats why I released my invention of new generation "vaccine". Its "vaccine" since it does not fool the human immune system, but fools the virus. As the virus is launched, it is connected to receptor in cell. As we 3D-print these fake receptor pieces and inject them into bloodstream: most of viruses become harmless, as they launch…

Hello all. I wanted to try and make a perpetual engine. So I made a design in blender, and was wondering what wouldn't work, or if there were any improvements. Blue Bits are moving parts. Red Bits are the motors. Green bits are wires. The yellow bits are separate from the frame but are attached to each other. The first image. As you can see, the pendulum (yes I know I spelt it wrong in the image), will spin round and round on the motor, that motor will then be powering the second. (see second image) The second motor will be moving the yellow parts back and forth, (see third image) creating moving power for the top. The fou…

Think of a dimension as a sphere shape, this universe is a dimension that has a wall, there is another dimension much bigger than this one and some asteroids exist there some elements can produce worm holes and an element that produces gravity also exists there. One day the gravity element from an asteroid reached an asteroid that contained the element that produces worm holes and they collided, from this collision there was a reaction, the worm hole element produced particles with soul material that knitted together producing a living being with some gravity element inside his soul. This being then died in the vacuum, there are no stars there just asteroids and so this b…

The electromagnetic force of a D'Arsenval (spring_loaded) meter Fiv=P^0.5 is proportional to the rooted electrical_power Piv=I*V (small postscripts used) for current I voltage V, resistance R. Isn't that in conflict to James Watt's definition of mechanical_power (caution: small postscript m used) Pm=F*va (not to be confused, with the m) for (Newton's) force F=m*a mass m acceleration a, average_speed (velocity) va=(vi+vf)/2 initial_speed (velocity) vi final_speed (velocity) vf. (I mean:) Both forces Fiv=F produce mechanical displacement t…

Mass and spin, a particle must have mass and spin... However I believe that for a particle to have more than one property it must have underlying structure, for the sake of this discussion let us assume that this is the case. This idea presents a quandary for certainly a particle must have spin and mass to exist. The solution to this is what I call the proto-particle, the most primitive building block of our universe. Let us consider a particle with a single property, is that property mass or spin? Certainly it must be mass for without mass there could not be angular momentum. My investigation of what this particles structure might be began with the idea …

A new atom model Abstract: This paper presents a new microscopic extension to the Coulomb’s law-a formula that describes how electron and nucleus interact each other within atom world. Based on this Coulomb’s law extension, a new atom model is proposed. Compared with current electron-cloud model and with old Bohr model, this model is most like atom’s real physical structure. Using this new model and basic integral calculation, the spectrum of hydrogen gas and the spectrum of ionized helium gas are successfully derived. Key words: Energy levels, Microscopic, Coulomb’s law extension, Balance point, Balance sphere. New atom model.pdf

So I've only posted a few times. And I don't really like to think of myself as a physicist, just a thinker. I get concepts, I get how they relate to each other and somehow I see them play out as a whole. this is the basics of "dark matter" manipulation. if dark matter exists, we can conclude a few things about it: it does not directly interact with the electromagnetic spectrum. it is effected by gravity. so we can almost treat them like neutral particles that cannot carry charge or light conceptually. right? so hypothesis: this picture displays what ions would do if the green object was a wire going into the screen and the orange line below it is…

Why is it that people on here ignore that the moon has an atmosphere? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_the_Moon its says .3 npa which from all sources that converts to 4 psi just for easy comparison. Our atmosphere is at 14.7 psi. Mars atmosphere is at 14.6 psi. It may not be one just like ours but it is one. sorry that was 4 to the -14 Whats collecting the gasses that it does have is what I want to know Mars is half the size of earth and has half the surface speed of earth approximately and has almost the same amount of psi as earth. Why isn't there a relationship between the atmospheres and the size and speed of the planets includ…

To some extent I feel like I am beating a dead horse but here goes. The vast majority of UFO sighting are either conventional objects misidentified or lack enough data to really make a judgment. Contrary to popular belief there are sightings that suffer from an embarrassment of data and yet stubbornly refuse to be identified. It should be mentioned that the original meaning of UFO was a flying object that could not be identified after exhaustive study, not simply lights in the sky. There are many "classes" of UFOs from the ones so silly they make for a good laugh to sightings that are either unknown technology so inexplicable as to be spacecraft or intentional…

Friends, I am an accountant, MBA. I have worked for over 2 decades in corporate world including as CFO and CEO. I thought there were only 2 things humans had not yet been able to define correctly or measure. Love and the size of the universe. I defined love (or hate) for any person, pet, object, cause or spirit with the same 3 conditions and provided a mathematical formula to measure the love (or hate) in my book called "What is Love? Formula for all Relationships." Now I am working on to define the actual origin of the universe and measuring its size, and some related subjects. I think I can propose a different theory than big bang for the origin…

I am interested about so called Darkmosphere around the cosmos mass objects, and i think that maybe really must be something in the space around cosmic bodies, with variable density from the surface of them and beyond . But this something is not only DM (aka Planck charge of anti - mass, I suppose, but even electric charge +). This may explain why the density is more near the surface caused by electric attraction of DM with negative shell of surface, but not interacting with mass of surface of bodies via anti - mass repulsion. The space around the bodies is physics, with some anti-gravity property, i speculate, which may be the cause of some kind of levitation of ga…

I was looking at RedBarron's gravity generator, and my idea is to have two metal thin plates close together that have the edges joined as well, so it's a closed suface. Vibrating it sufficiently (with acceleration of the vibration) would suck air towards the flat surface that is empty inside. I figured it out by taking a piece of paper to make a torus, but not the usual way. I'll explain later, but the essential idea is join the 4 corners of the paper, and you end up with two holes and the other hole has to be closed. Now make a sphere out of it (join the top edge of that to the left edge and the right edge to the bottom). With the two holes, you get a flat piece of …

Have you ever considered superconductivity might be a frozen magnetism (effect) in the cooling fluid, around a (super)conductor (catalyst)? E.g. The cooling fluid has frozen magnetism around near the superconductor surface. That (surface) acts as a catalyst or seed starter for magnetism (domains). The effect is external to the conductor, not internal; & it is (very strongly) magnetic on the outside of the conductor. The superconductor's surface acts as a catalyst to kickstart the magnetic fluid's field, dealing with frozen magnetism in a cold fluid, requiring different temperatures …

This isn't a question of how to create Gravity rather a question on if anyone else has? At least what I'm going to call it till someone can prove it to be something else. It is a budget build version and in no way made in a lab with all the fancy stuff. I didn't just make something move air. This is an actual calculated device with numbers to go with. Whether or not the wheel inside the tube is made to specs is human error on welding and cutting. It was hand made. My first attempt ripped itself apart. It was made of plastic. You can see in the video it vibrates a lot. That's because its not balanced. Its rotating at and around 6k rpm peak. I observed something while osc…

Hi. I would like to read opinions regarding the following. There are old books and there are religions. We know with certainty that religions invoke parts of ancient books to justify the structure of this or that religion. Regardless of that, the old books are full of affirmations of all kinds, including some that we can discuss scientifically today. Take the Bible as an example, although the same thing appears in other ancient books. Regarding the genesis of what exists, it explains that the formation started from nothing. Do I commit abuse assuming that, in that context, the word nothing equals emptiness? In case of not committing abuse, let's continue. The se…

Here'( i)s a spin_off (=sidetrack)) of Ewert's pulley experiment. The driving (=pulling) weight difference (force) (m2-m1)*g=(m1+m2)*a2 (of 2 different masses, stringed over a pully) must accelerate (to drive, all=) the ((total) whole=100%, =sum of) mass m3=m2+m1 (because the rest (=not_different=non_difference) is (equal=) equated_out (as the same, or identical)). a2=g*(m2-m1)/(m1+m2). & a1=-a2, so a1=-g*(m2-m1)/(m1+m2) or swapping the mass difference a1=g*(m1-m2)/(m1+m2) Thus we have the eccentric equation(s) & mass2('s excess, wrt mass1) determines i…
