Hi,

Can I post an idea I have that I think may cover several differrent sciences?

What protection would my work/idea have if I do post it?

Im not a scientist either, does that matter?

Thank you

If by protection you mean intellectual property protection then do not post it or in any other way publicise it, until you have first filed a patent application. The moment you publish, the idea becomes part of the public domain and free for anyone to take up, unless you have first filed to reserve your rights.

Your idea will be public domain and totally unprotected, but yes you can post it and no it doesn’t matter if you’re not a scientist so long as you acknowledge mainstream science criticisms and use scientific principles

My pleasure. Please don’t take it personally when everyone pokes holes in your idea. That’s a big part of science: showing why and where people’s ideas don’t make sense or how they’re flawed. This is how we progress using only the best ideas

Thats actually what I need to be honest.

I have no idea if it is valid or even possible so other peoples opinions are very welcome but the no protection worries me.

Why, specifically? Can you monetize the idea, or is this about getting credit for it, or something else? 

If it covers "several sciences", which discipline do you want to use to discuss it (if you decide you want to share it)? 

Does this idea explain something we currently don't understand, or is it an idea that makes better sense to you than current theory?

Welcome.

As others point out

this is a very open ended question.

You can have as much protection as you want.
From full protection if you decide not to post, to varying protection if you do, and full protection again if the idea turns out to be worthless and no one else wants it.

Its going to sound very very unlikely but something came to me early august and as I kept writing it (it actually seemed to write itself) , it seemed to possibly provide an explanation to a lot of things, such as the big bang, quasars, black holes, dark matter, spiritualistc auras, the way ufo's can move so quick and effortlessly, human resonation, previous pre historic civilisation technology such as moving great stones around, instant quantum travel, entanglement,  quantum hair information, kinetic energy, possible cures to most illnesses,  and other things.

Every time I wrote a chapter, it led to the next thing and then the next thing and so on, it was very very strange, almost like someone was writing through me.

 

I don't suppose it is a definitive answer, like I said Im not a scientist but as I wrote it, it kind of wrote itself.

I don't know if it could be monetised but if it a 'something' then I would want acknowledgement for it.

Especially as I am not a scientist and to be honest I wasn't science educated at school.

It could be that big but hmm maybe its just a nice story.

Who am I to come up with something that all the very brilliant people of our times and past don't seem to have.

I only say that because if this idea is indeed true then human life and the way we see everything would be very very different to how we live now.

We would be planet hopping for instance. If it's true.

If you were in my shoes, what would you do?

What do you think I should do?

I'm not exactly sure what sciences it covers but i think astrophysics, quantum physics and biology are 3 of them.

TBH, I’d temper my expectations. There’s almost certainly a fundamental flaw you’re currently missing

I think you are right, I really do, might be many many fundamental flaws im missing.

Thats why I came here and have also asked Professor Brian Cox if he will let me speak to him about it.

I don't suppose he will, I'm a nobody and an even bigger nobody when it comes to this stuff.

 

Thank you for replying to me by the way, it means a lot.

I'd say go ahead and post it.
When I see things like 'spiritualistic auras, UFOs, human resonation, quantum travel and ( what is ) quantum hair information', I get the impression it's time for fruit and nut cake.
You don't seem to understand some terms you use and I can't see how your idea would have any use to anyone else.

Sorry about the brutal honesty.

Are you dissatisfied with our current explanations for these phenomena? 

The danger here is that you haven't understood the science involved in mainstream theories ("Especially as I am not a scientist and to be honest I wasn't science educated at school"), and have opted instead for something that makes more sense to you. It seemed magical to you as you were writing it, because it IS magic, it's flying over the difficult parts to get to the parts that seem more reasonable. Unfortunately, scientific methods require us to plod forward, taking the next step in an idea only when we're absolutely sure it's the right one, based on a foundation of trustworthy knowledge. Theory is the strongest explanation we have in science, partly because they're tested so often and rigorously, and partly because they allow us to make accurate predictions. 

I'd suggest starting in our Speculations section. Focus on a couple of your concepts (maybe not the "human resonation" or the "spiritualistic auras"), give us some supportive evidence, and I guarantee some learning will happen.

Nobody cares who you are. Whether an expert with advanced degrees or a random dropout who didn’t make it passed grade school, all that matters is the merit of your idea and your ability to defend it against criticism using facts and intellectual honesty.

Asking Brian Cox about it is a good notion, but put it in writing to him.

From the fact that you have approached BC, I deduce you are somewhere in the UK.

Unless you live somewhere like the Isle of Lewis, you are probably within few miles of a University. Go and ask in the Physics dept. They won't bite.

I remember when I was 12 I made the common mistake about cloud reflection and wrote to Patrick Moore about it.

He was delighted to reply and explained the greenhouse effect beautifully when he wrote back.

 

You could also make a general statement and ask for some advice on it by private message (PM) to someone here. Some have benefitted from that route in the past.

 

Finally you may have noticed you have reached your posting limit for your first 24 hours as a new member. Don't worry you will be able to post freely after that.

"Protection" is only relevant for inventions, i.e. something that can be made, which have commercial potential. If you just have a scientific idea, protection in a legal sense is not possible, apart from copyright on the actual text of any article you may write about it. An idea itself is not something that can be legally protected.

Hi again,

Thanks exchemist, I think its the copyright protection I am talking about without knowing more.

I just need to do a couple of things with my idea 1st proof wise but I'm hopeful I can post it here tomorrow afternoon or wednesday.

I'm very eager to see what you all think of it.

I'll be posting it under the physics topic as it seems to belong there more than anywhere else.

But ofcourse if an admin thinks it should be somewhere else, please feel free to move it to the relevant topic.

I think the only facts I might have are the theories I have seen on science programmes and some stuff I have read.

However, I have no ego regarding this and will be as honest as I possibly can.

But please realise whilst I think I am a bit clever, I do not have the understanding or words that you very clever people do.

So please bear with me if I am using terms that you might have an already scientific name for in my idea.

If it's a personal theory post it in Speculation not one of the mainstream physics forums.
