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.

    is extraterrestrial, it(s origin) does NOT come from this world (earth). Or does it? I suspect nickel is a fusion product from the intense heat of (some) material entering the earth's atmosphere. 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). But dust (from impacts), & impacts into sand can also get hot, as something (=material, other than air) to rub against (for the friction(al heat production))). Cosmic rays have been r…

    A single particle has an indeterminate charge as charge can be said to be relative. Two particles with opposite charges but bound in a system consisting of the two has a neutral charge. Three particles, one with an unlike charge bound in a system has a 2/3 charge? I am referring to composite particles. Comments?

There can be up to 3 people given a Nobel for the same work, the languages that exist are much to arbitrary and I need assistance with proofs and formulas that will backup the things in this post which it and my other work are the most important work being done in any field if you could see how far-reaching and applicable these things are going to be. The membranes that are the fields of force that are what make up the dementions of space dont allow for the exsistance of any cardinal angles, there are no Cardinal angles that exist in all of existence there are only Cardinal curves, if you had sufficient magnification that was precise and accurate enough and inspected the…

  4. A Logical Perspective on the Origins of Homo sapiens sapiens A genetically created, biological procreating, environmentally nurtured humanoid The Origins of Homo sapiens sapiens, otherwise known as humanoids or humans, has been a controversial subject for eons and eons. Or to be more exact, ever since any particular isolated group of humans became sufficiently nurtured by their environment to begin questioning their own origins or existence. There are three (3) schools of thought concerning the origins of humans. The 1st one is based in/on Religious beliefs that the heavens, the earth and everything upon the earth is the …

    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.

    After reading about Admiral Byrd's treks to Antarctica and his relating of the planes disintegrating into an unknown wall; which is perhaps the dome, I have come to the conclusion the earth is flat. The U.N. emblem shows a flat earth. I have witnessed water pouring in a spiral too. What are your thoughts?

  7. Hi, I have a new idea about how to mix them, but i'm not a physicist and definitely not able to put math on it.. What if, instead of "curving space", density of matter would define the dimension (the Hamel dimension, not only integer) of space. Instead of having a "curved space", it would be a space "of varying local dimension", and of course, in first approximation at our scale, it would fit to the description of a curved space. (but it could also go higher than 4)... (I can picture this kind of space by viewing as a infinite graph with more or less links between nodes..) So now at quantum scale, it would allow to have a higher dimensional space where particles …

    Non verbal communication plays a major role in human interaction. Human are able to emote a wide variety of feelings suggestions visually both purposefully and unknowingly. In society as more and more people prefer text based forms of communication over face to face interaction what are the long term implications?.

  11. I suggest a simple way to understand the "problem of the cosmological constant" or "the vacuum catastrophe" .Yours opinions are welcome. first, the volumetric density of energy of the quantum vacuum equals for example: [latex]\frac{E_p}{l_p^3}=\frac{\hbar /t_p}{l_p^3}=4,6*10^{113}Joules/m^3[/latex] [latex]t_p=c/l_p[/latex] [latex]\Large{\frac{\hbar*(c/l_p)}{l_p^3}=\frac{\frac{\hbar^2*(c^2/l_p^2)}{l_p^{3*2}}}{\frac{\hbar*(c/l_p)}{l_p^3}}}=4.6*10^{113}Joules/m^3[/latex] (1) [latex]\Lambda=1.11*10^{-52}m^{-2}[/latex] [latex]\text{Planck force} = F_p= c^4/G=1.2*10^{44}Newtons[/latex] the volumetric density of energy of the dark…

    A rupti stunt Stella gravitas. Or burst of stars with gravity. This discovery I made while testing out some galaxy ideas. This “hole” is a mixture of a black hole and a theorized white hole. As it bursts stellar objects such as stars, planets or other cosmic objects but while doing that it still holds a stellar body such as a galaxy together with its gravity of a black hole. It’s completely theoretical but it is possible. Let me know -Keaton Anderson

    All new discoveries were called new discoveries because they were not found until then. Throughout the history of science, among the things that have not yet been discovered, new discoveries have had many examples. In other words, it does not guarantee that undiscovered findings of any physical object will be undiscovered in the future. The history of physics, and even the history of science. Some phenomena of relativity and quantum mechanics are against common sense. Already, accelerating expansion of universe is not what we expected. The rotation curves of galaxies were not what we expected. It is a phenomenon that conflicts with common sense in some aspects. …

    In the wake of the Florida shooting some victims have addressed claims they're not actors separately I have seen radio and YouTube personalities claim that White people aren't welcome to watch the recently released Black Panther Movie. Just two examples I believe to be the work of Internet Trolls being passed off as real things groups of people are seriously saying. Very few or perhaps even no one at all honestly believes the Florida shooting was faked. Just as there is not a movement within the Black community seeking to bar White people from watching the Black Panther.These are fictions created to generate views and shares on the internet. One person can have mult…

For many years i was certain there had to be other life in the universe, but the more i studied our reality the more i realize how special of a circumstance we are likely in. Obviously this isnt some conclusive study but it is very interesting to see papers such as this coming out from the mainstream, i am impressed.

    If electrons didn’t have VOLUME, the universe wouldn’t exist in the first place! Our physics understandings of SPACE is wrong and the “renormalization” performed any time the irrational mathematical constant pi is used in calculations is ludicrous and is keeping us from unifying all theories into one. I just recently published a few articles explaining the negative consequences of a convenient selection of a random decimals of pi for pure practical purposes while ignoring the repercussions that this practice has inflicted in our understanding of the true nature of SPACE and its implications when energy and matter is present. When I talk about subatomic particles and their…

  20. Hi! My name is Miguel De Zayas and I'm just a layman not a physicist or anything. For years I've been concerned about the true nature of our physical Reality... I came up with a theory of my own, well more like a personal interpretation of the way God conceived the universe and I came up with a simple question: Why are we (humans) so afraid of the concept of INFINITE? My articles are published in various sites and I thought that perhaps the title of this posting could spark some curiosity about the subject in yourselves too. In case you have problems by opening my site, I urge you to look me up in Facebook under redacted. The question I promised is in every single article…

  22. Question: Why mass of electron and proton particles are what they are? Here is a “number of equations” that give energy and mass of a hypothetic common particles with an hypothetic “Compton unity wave length” equal “ (2 * pi * α^-1 * 1) in meter ”. Here “ 1 m ” is the radius of hypothetic particle, equal unity space of system. From real particles “electron’s” and ‘Proton’s” wave-length, we may find radius of electron “ Re. = 2.8179401*10^-15 m.” and Rp. = 1.534698258*10^-18 m. for proton. Replacing this radiuses, in below formulas we find energy and indeed mass of those particles. The given below formulas I may call unique compositions,…

I don’t know quite how to make sense of and fully understand the information I’m getting from these day dreams and meditation visions and I’d appreciate some help. Maybe some dumbed down information about anything that directly relates to what I’m seeing. ok so the first onee is an elastic band ball multiverse, each band infinitely thin therefor the number of bands is also infinite, the closer you look the more and more bands you see, infinite number of band universes all laid on top and side by side with more band universes.
