Welcome jwolynski,

That's great that you have new ideas, but we are a forum that has created a niche focusing on accepted, known, mainstream science. You should read our rules first so that you understand what we are about.

You will find many fascinating discussions here by scientists that work in the various fields.

Most of the guidelines are common sense and basic courtesy. Other special guidelines are the following:

  • We wish to discuss mainstream science.That means only topics that can be found in textbooks or that have been published in reputable journals.
Mission Statement:

Our mission is to provide a place for people (whether students, professional scientists, or others interested in science) to learn and discuss science as it is currently generally understood and practiced by the professional scientific community. As our name suggests, our main focus is on physics, but we also have forums for most other academic areas including engineering, chemistry, biology, social sciences, etc.
