SUMMARY

The discussion centers on an individual's inquiry about presenting a personal theory on dark matter and energy, questioning the existence of the Big Bang and the gravitational behavior of galaxies. The forum moderators clarify that personal theories are not suitable for discussion on their platform, emphasizing the importance of understanding mainstream cosmological theories. They recommend consulting existing insights and warn that the likelihood of independently discovering revolutionary theories is extremely low. The thread was subsequently locked to prevent further inquiries on this topic.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of mainstream cosmological theories, including the Big Bang theory.
  • Familiarity with concepts of dark matter and dark energy.
  • Knowledge of gravitational dynamics in astrophysics.
  • Awareness of the scientific method and peer review processes.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the current state of dark matter and dark energy theories.
  • Study gravitational interactions between galaxies and their movements.
  • Explore the scientific method and how to present theories for peer review.
  • Read the Physics Forums Insight on new theories and their reception in the scientific community.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for amateur physicists, aspiring theorists, and anyone interested in understanding the challenges of presenting new scientific ideas within established frameworks.

hi unlike probably every one else on this forum, I am neither a scientist, a student, nor a teacher. What I am is very interested in theoretical physics.
Any way what I would like to know or would like help with is where or who I could approach with a theory on dark matter/ energy which questions if there ever was a Big Bang and solves why everything within galaxies has gravity and the galaxies themself do not or cannot move around one another. I just really want someone to say either I'm wrong and why? Or I am right and it is so simple it's ridiculous. Thanks in advance

Galaxies can and do move around one another.

That's not what we do here on PF. If you would like to discuss which mainstream cosmological theories there are, you are free to do so. However, if you're trying to talk about a personal theory or idea then you've come to the wrong forum. You can contact myself or another mentor if you are unsure if you're questions involve mainstream science or not.

Thread locked.
 
I suggest you read this insight: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/wont-look-new-theory/
The chances you have figured out something revolutionary are miniscule. In particular if you are not aware of the state of the art.

There was a comparison in the discussion thread which was quite spot on. If you call a professional football club and ask for a tryout, what do you think their response would be?

Since there is an Insight on the subject and it has been asked over and over on this forum, this thread is closed.
