What would be the implications of a pseudoscientific 5th fundamental force?

AI Thread Summary
In a sci-fi parapsychology narrative featuring a real psychic force, the implications for established scientific principles are significant. The introduction of a psi force suggests alterations to particle physics, quantum physics, relativity, and classical physics, as well as consciousness. This force implies a higher power and a non-computational aspect of consciousness, allowing for the manipulation of reality by individuals. While rewriting the laws of physics can provide creative freedom, achieving consistency with existing scientific frameworks may be challenging. Developing a coherent mechanism for the psi force is essential for maintaining narrative plausibility within the fictional world.

heyyy, im writing a sci fi parapsychology related story and it has a bunch of pseudoscience, including a real psi force. to make my story more accurate and to have more ideas I'm curious about the implications of such a force for the rest of science in my fictional world assuming that the force is the main alteration from the real world. essentially, what happens to particle physics, quantum physics, relativity, classical physics, consciousness etc with there being humans who can control a psychic force with their mind and influence reality ? it implies a higher power and non-computational consciousness, correct? so I could incorporate that into the fictional world? I need to come up with a mechanism for all of it too

thank you if anyone helps me w this !!!

Welcome to PF.

There's not a lot of restrictions here. When you rewrite the laws of physics you can say they are anything you want. If you are looking for consistency though, between your new law and the rest of existing physics, you are unlikely to reliably find it.

Here's a thread of speculation about something like this. http://hi.gher.space/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=2340 Any further discussion would be better to take place over there instead of here, I think.
 
A map of a four-dimensional planet is three dimensional, so such can exist in our Universe. I made one and posted a video to the Internet. This is all based on William Kingdon Clifford's math from the 19th century. It works like this. A 4D planet has two perpendicular planes of rotation. The intersection of such a plane with the surface of the planet is a great circle. We can define latitude as the arctan( distance from one plane/distance from the other plane). The set of all points...
