    1. You're tripping on mushrooms - observations are invalid.

    2. Psilocybin is - I believe - not strictly legal for general public in most of the jurisdiction that matter to this forum.

    3. This is neither physics nor neuroscience

     

    Thread locked. If you must open a thread about consciousness then either psychology or philosophy forums are the place - but let me say this; threads which rely on a special knowledge withheld from those who do not have resort to psychotropic/hallucinogenic drugs tend to be seen as soapboxing

     

  2.  

    Why?

     

    O.K.

    Let look at B.

     

    Do you agree that the relative speed between B and A is 0.6 the speed of light?

    Do you agree that the relative speed between B and C is also 0.6 the speed of light?

     

    Hence, do you agree that with regards to B, the relative speed between A and C is 1.2 the speed of light?

    If the relative speed between A and C is only 1.0 the speed of light, than how could B see A and C moving at 0.6 the speed of light?

     

     

     

     

    Yes, that is correct between B to A and B to C.

    However, that is not relevant to the speed between A to C.

    One more example -

    If we look left we can see galaxy D which is moving away from us at almost the speed of light.

    If we look rightwe can see galaxy F which is moving away from us at almost the speed of light.

     

    So, what is the relative speed between D to F?

     

    Just less than the speed of light. Always less than the speed of light. A third party observer might measure a gap increasing at greater speed than light could cross - but the relative velocity through space is less than the speed of light

  3. 1. If you think that you have solved it as in you have realised ( or even better produced a full analysis which shows) why it doesn't work then maybe if you are interested in setting up a dialogue you could start talking to an academic. But it is not a new problem and has been shown not to work in many different ways - so do not expect any real kudos

     

    2. If you think you have solved it as in shown why it works then really do not bother. It DOES NOT work and the vast majority of academic will just spam bin anything which say that you can get energy for nothing. One or two slightly odd academics do collect false free energy ideas for a giggle - but you do not want to get in their "crackpot's folder"

  4. A negative effective mass can be realized in quantum systems by engineering the dispersion relation. A powerful method is provided by spin-orbit coupling, which is currently at the center of intense research efforts. Here we measure an expanding spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate whose dispersion features a region of negative effective mass. We observe a range of dynamical phenomena, including the breaking of parity and of Galilean covariance, dynamical instabilities, and self-trapping. The experimental findings are reproduced by a single-band Gross-Pitaevskii simulation, demonstrating that the emerging features—shock waves, soliton trains, self-trapping, etc.—originate from a modified dispersion. Our work also sheds new light on related phenomena in optical lattices, where the underlying periodic structure often complicates their interpretation.

    Say, mate, you must have a Brit version of our parody news site called The Onion?

     

    ...

     

    Frankly, right now the Onion is as serious as most of the mainstream press. We do not have anything of the complexity and professionalism of the Onion but we do have the Daily Mash.

    To be brutal we (in the UK) used to mock the USA for having an infantile bawdy sense of humour and failing to appreciate satire and irony - now the situation is almost reversed. Even "highbrow" comedy in the UK is pretty puerile compared to that of my youth - and we have little that compares to the daring yet still political humour in the USA

  6. Here is the paper http://www.spacetelescope.org/static/archives/releases/science_papers/heic1706/heic1706a.pdf

     

    I think Strange is correct and their phrasing is extremely sloppy. What they mean is that the event took place 1.2billion years prior to our present observation - which of course is not 1.2billion years from now but much much longer (8.24 Gly I think)

     

    Based on the morphology of the host, we estimate that a major merger be tween two galaxies both containing an SMBH occurred roughly 1.2 Gyr ago.

     

    I think this means "1.2Gyr before the situation we are currently observing"

    Ok - this thread has run its course. It is abundantly clear that the OP has scant understanding of the basics of mathematics, physics, and cosmology - we do not provide this space for people to blog their latest fantastical pipe dream. The speculations forum exists to allow members to test their idea - but these tests necessarily rely on compatibility with current theory, mathematical consistency, and the possibility of empirical evidence and comparison to the data; this speculation does not even allow the possibility of such testing.

     

    This thread falls well below the standards required for the Speculations Forum and is now locked. The OP does not have permission to reopen a new thread on the same topic.

     

  8.  

    I wondered about that as well. The article did says the longest was an oil well but didn't say what that meant. The article also referenced a SciShow video link which it did not provide. Perhaps the details are in that nonexistent video link.

     

    Oil wells can go considerable (10km) lateral distances too

  9. Sorry - but don't trust any network unless you trust and know the person administering it. Password security for WIFI networks is very very poor (it's the meatware end that lets the side down) and once the nasties are in then they are snooping, sniffing, and phishing

    My hypothesis is, that by increasing Stem cells we are able to drastically increase our lifespans.

     

    Please either refute or confirm my hypothesis.

     

    Off-topic and not the way science works. Do not hijack discussions with tangential remarks and please be aware that the "refute or confirm" gambit is the tool of the crank. If you can replace the core of your argument with " a teapot orbiting the sun somewhere between earth and mars" and not really change the import, validity, or evidential value of your claim then perhaps it is best to not make the contention in the first place

     

    Do not respond to this moderation within the thread.

     

     

  11. epura? Does it mean projection, transformation, or correction? Each of the diagrams has a line which is transformed in some way (A-->A' etc.) with a point in the middle of the line being the ones the OP is interested in

  12. That's probably more important then my tomatoes :)

    On Wednesday and Thursday night it should be 0°C but during the day it's ok.

    L-B-L was driven in the snow at 1980!

    Hinault won and only 21 cyclists reached the finish.

     

    When it was really tough Hinault was unstoppable - he was a bit of a brute was M. le Blaireau. I presume you guys are still in a state of national mourning for the retirement of Tommeke - I so wanted him to win PR; but fairy tales sometimes don't come true

  13. I am very angry.

    I have planted several tomato plants in the greenhouse and it might freeze 2 nights in a row in a few days.

     

    What's the weather forecast for next week - freezing? I am more concerned for Amstel Gold, Fleche-Wallonne, and L-B-L than for garden :)

  14. OK - You're trolling or cannot read English.

     

    Show the calculation, the known variables (and their source), and the answer.

     

    0.9993281288633913P/1(0.0006718379510901w=0.0000000331855186w)/V

     

    You have three unexplained numbers lets call them j, k, m

     

    jP/1 ∝ (k)= m /V

     

    There is an equation

    k=m/V

    and a proportionality

    jP ∝ k

     

    WHY! Give us a clue. At present this is vegan science - all word salad and no meat!
