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.

    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"?

  3. 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?

  5. 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 '…

  6. 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…

  9. 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.

    OK, so this is the stuff of sci-fi. But I would like to know whether it would theoretically be possible, however unlikely or experimental, for water to be transported from the oceans and away from the Earth via a wormhole and into (for instance) the orbit space? If there is some sort of theoretical model to allow this, would it be possible with a large quantity of water? And what exactly would be the scientific model behind this? For instance, I have read about a wormhole being used to transport a magnetic field, could the same thing be done with water? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/scientists-in-spain-create-first-ever-magnetic-wormhole-in-l…

Keyword: atmosphere. Asteroids are smaller objects without a significant atmosphere. The moon's atmosphere is also (probably) insignificant, as seen from fotos (dark background, no blue sky, nor clouds).

    This is not a question, whereas it is an exercise. I would like to create a new language, one that is very simple and entirely based upon solely the English language. It has to be very simple and very efficient in informing another individual about what they are saying. It can use certain symbols but it must be able to be traced back to English words and terms. I do not have a name for it, just want to create it with people I have never met who are interested in the sciences and brain stuff.
