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.

So quick question, are our models of reality based on probability because we cannot observe the universe at certain scales due the thing that we need to observe messing up measurements like light and atom particles. Or is it the other way around? Being that we cannot observe things at such small scales because of the probability and uncertainty of the universe as a whole?

The Moderator has closed a topic of mine, with the following argument: Moderator Note We're a science discussion forum. If you wish to discuss your paper, please post it in the appropriate section, minus the emotional email distractions. If your paper doesn't follow mainstream science, you're welcome to post it in our Speculations section, where you can defend its merits with supportive evidence. Due to the fact that Fundamental Journals is a known predatory publisher, you'll need to present extraordinary evidence for any extraordinary claims. This thread is closed. Then let me exhibit an extraordinar…

Some people misuse the fact that dreams are not completely understood as a method to say that dreams may come from parallel universes. I am trying to win an argument with my friend concerning this topic and I need evidence that contradicts this statement. Though, the burden of proof argument comes into play, please don't comment that as it has already been stated. Surely there must be some logical rule that prevents dreams from occurring in parallel universes if you have an inkling please comment as it will be greatly appreciated.

I have couple questions about the time, measured by 2 light clocks in a frame, which moves at a constant velocity - where one clock is perpendicular and second one is parallel to the direction of motion: https://www.pitt.edu/~jdnorton/teaching/HPS_0410/chapters/Special_relativity_clocks_rods/index.html 1. First, the parallel one - according to SR, distance which is being passed by a photon is in this case reduced due to lenght contraction. When the photon is moving in the same direction, as the entire frame, lenght contraction cancels out the increased distance, caused by motion of the clock (as light is "chasing" the mirror) - this is why, the same time ca…

"The Law is not itself God, nor is God the Law." -Dietrich Bonhoeffer Attempts to achieve total conscienceness exhibit asymptotic freedom. Simplicity and clarity are signposts on the way to truth, but the approach of creationism produces a false simplicity at best. It's wrong to question motives, but the desire to "know" can become obsessive and can turn into a desire for there to be nothing unknown at all as an achievable goal. "Turn key" belief systems do not dispel mystery, they whitewashe it. Now then, to prove that classic creationism is in no way possible would be to prove that an omnipotent creator does not exist. And, quantum mechanics seems to allow f…

This I have been staring at for about half an hour now, and, have found that the elecronegativity can be worked out like the weights of elements I depicted at a earlier point. Basically, you take the atomic number, or, number or protons, and, observe that every time the number increases, (-1) [Atomic radius] (+1) [Ionization] (+1) [Electronegativity], coming to +2 per atomic listing. This means that Hydrogen is [3], and Lithium is [5], okay? Then, that number that it comes to is divided by the row it is on, times by half the column it is listed in, okay? ~ This is still a work in progress, so please help me find out the formula?

Exist borders between Physic’s and Metaphysic’s issues? I suppose that this is a broader list of issues, as the studies of nature are in so many fields. I am interested only in the issue of “particularity” of matter, and indeed in my last post question of why “electron and proton particles” are what they are, so stabile, and so different. As I remember I had “not any answer” on my post about this conundrum. And always, when I have not any satisfactory answer, I scratch my pot of speculation, for finding “whatever kind of a speculative answer” to satisfy myself. Here are my speculations: In Nature must be two kinds of frequencies: 1----“ El…

Isn't 'science' education" actually brainswashing? Yes of course it is, the whole 'education' system is here to dumb people down, take away their creativity and learn to conform. That's why the theories of 'scientists' are so very strange, they can't think straight anymore and confuse mathematics for the real world. It's a sad state of affairs.

This is where the attractive forces themselves come from. If they were not attracted to each other, the whole atom would fall apart, and, there would be no matter. So, if there was no attractive force between other things, due to electromagnetism, there would be no things, world or universe. This follows that the world is held together by electromagnetism and everything is affected by this fundamental force. The atom itself is held together by a neutron that bonds with the protons. This leads to zero friction, as they have bonded. Then,t he electron will be attracted to the proton, held back by the repulsion of the other electrons coming together like a fullerene com…

Previously, I have come up with two perpetual motion engine methods; [1] The oscillation method. This would be where we apply force to one side of the oscillator, and have it bounce back at nearly the same amount of energy, applying it into the 'mechanism.' This is added to by the addition of more energy from the source to a new area, maybe in a reversed circle, where the rotation will send more energy than was initial injected to the system. This comes from the balls rebounding and producing, basically, [90%] then [80%] then [70%] and so forth amounts of the initial energy as the balls bounce back and forth. [2] The suction method. This would be where we observ…

well I really wonder how 'something' can come from 'nothing' as the Big Bang implies. of course something like that can't be done, but it is also against all physical laws, right? So how do they explain then that 'something' came from 'nothing"?

Hi, There is now a very simple way to calculate Hubble's Constant, by inputting to an equation, the numerical value of Pi and the speed of light (C) from Maxwell's equations and the value of a parsec. NO space probe measurements (with their inevitable small measuring / interpretation errors) are now required. Hubble's Constant is 'fixed' at 70.98047 PRECISELY. This maths method removes the errors / tolerances that is always a part of attempting to measuring something as 'elusive' as Hubble's Constant. To save you labouring through Astrogeometry, the Hubble 'fixing' equation is :- 2 X by a meg parsec X by light speed (C). This is then divided by Pi to the power of …

If the sun, as predicted, will uncomfortably expand in the far future, couldn't a process be developed of sending mechanisms to enter the solar core to fission the heavier elements before that becomes a critical issue, thus maintaining an appropriate ratio and so keeping the unwanted eventuality at bay?

Hi all, I would like to pose some questions about Gravity as a zero-point-fluctuation force of Puthoff. The article: Zero Point Field cause an oscillation on fundamental particles. (electrons and quarks) and this cause a mutual interaction between those particles. Making the calculations Puthoff observes the correct dependence on distance. (r-2) The questions are: to simulate the presence of a particle outside a macroscopic object it should be sufficient to recreate the variable electromagnetic field that the particle would generate by oscillating. It would be enough to have such a field and the macroscopic object would be attracted by the gravity of the '…

What about an edge surrounding the Universe, acting as a black hole edge? This would explain the accelerated expansion, because the closer a galaxy approaches this massive edge, the faster it will be attracted to it.

Time and space are what make a universe but are they both fundamental things? What I am asking is one the source and the other emergent i.e. does time emerge from space or does space emerge from time? These two things are so closely related and interchangeable that I am asking if it is far more likely they are one in the same thing, for example if you are a certain distance from me you are also a proportional amount of time from me, to be here is to be now so are we really talking about two separate things or just one thing and that which emerges from it? There may be some speculative way to look at time and space that explains their compatibility while maintai…

Preface Now what I’m about to say will befuddle and confuse most of you, ……. and at first you won’t believe me …… because you may have never ever heard or read anything similar before now. Your conscious mind …… did not see …… what you are now reading on your PC monitor. Your optic nerves transmit two (2) channels of streaming video which they received via reflected/radiated light that entered the pupil of your eye, passed through the lens and struck the back of your eye. These inverted images are then transmitted to your subconscious mind which combines the two and with only the center portion of said image being in focus. If reading, …

Hello, first time poster here. Pre algebra mathematics level but fan of theoretical nomenclature and explainations. For a few years the idea of the Higg’s field being the result of white hole decay has haunted me. Most people assume black hole and white hole symmetry but forget to incorporate that Universe creation may symbolize an off symmetric white hole. After the creation of the Universe in dimension (edges), excess energy still existing forced these edges of highly charged space torwards the center. Constantly twisting a dimension of energy until a white hole was created at the center giving the above one integer. The universe in measure of expansion must open before…

1. In the laboratory on Earth, the 2 m long cylinder was filled with air at 20 atmospheres pressure. After opening the small measuring valve, the pressure in the cylinder drops to 10 atmospheres after 200 seconds. Questions: 1. What pressure will be present in this cylinder placed, along the direction of travel, in a spacecraft flying at 260,000 km /s? According to relativity theory at 260,000 km/s, the cylinder length will be contracted to 1 meter. 2. After what time, according to the light clock on the ship, the pressure in the cylinder will drop to half the value after opening the measuring valve? 3. What will be the above valu…

How can a electron, being a single point in space, have mass? If it has an infinitely small volume while having a certain mass then wouldn't that mean that it would have infinite density? I don't know I am probably wrong, maybe missing something.

As required by the Modulator I have started a new thread for you in Speculations. This is blatantly untrue as I specifically requested this one hour previously. Which is why I am asking you to explain and define the three terms, I have underlined below, you have introduced that I (and probably many others here) are not familiar with. In particular the re-propulsion idea. Are you, for instance, proposing that the same photon is emitted or what after a photo-atomic and photo-electron event ? I think Marcus is referring to change …

Perhaps time is subject to wave particle duality. Time dilation (especially gravitational time dilation) might point to particle behavior of time. Light interacts with a gravitational field just like time. ..and light is made of photons(particles). Time dilation is in a sense related to the dopplereffect....they are both about the effect of relative velocity between two observers(this is very simplified of course). And according to Wave–particle duality ..particles or quantum entities can be(partly) described as waves. So when you find time particles, then time is subject to wave particle duality I found this video about it:

has any thought been given to dark "matter" being not made of some alternative type matter, but is a collection of "squeezed space" itself, mimicking the presence of an invisible material ? If space is thought to be expanding, why can't it shrink at some points within that general expansion? if the early universe had some regions of space that were slightly denser, in a random placement among "normal" space, these slightly altered space components could seek each other out, thus clumping, and so be incorporated within galaxy formations, thus speeding up the stellar rotation rates.

If time is a wave many mysteries of quantum mechanics are solved instantly We notice many strange unexplained mysteries in quantum mechanics such as : Electron jumps as if it didn’t cross the distance ,disappear and appear . Pair entanglement mystery Matter and anti matter measurement mystery 2 split experiment Photon as a wave or a quanta Electron spin right or left We tend to think about time as if it flows in straight line from past to future smoothly What if time is actually a wave that moves in frequency (i suggest to test the frequency as Plank constant)time ticks and flow as a wave.during this ticks it flows faster …
