Okay you scientists, I don't believe you've addressed the two links that I've previously posted which AlienScientist/Jeremy included as relevant in the description of his video about Haramein's work.
Link #1:
Link #2:
The zero point field
Yes gold diggers trying to part unsuspecting people of their money on "free energy" contraptions that don't work.
Harvesting the energy
Since the word on zero point energy was out in the world, a new breed of gold diggers has been born.
Now we get to the second part of the hypothetical theory, that the reason the sky is blue is because a giant spaghetti monster is expelling blue gas.
Disclosure project
Steven Greer has made a career out of disclosing the truth about free energy in his Disclosure Project.

It's a cool concept but frankly it strikes me as "yesterday's physics". With all we know of harnessing zero-point energy, which is literally what the fabric of space/time is made of, I'd like to think that such massive, bulky devices would be made obselete by such an advanced race.
You have a lot to learn about zero point energy my friend.
The zero means "ZERO" as in a bank account with zero funds. Sure you might get away with making a withdrawal or two in the short term before the bank stops you and charges overdraft fees and demands the balance be returned to zero or more. But you won't make withdrawals from a zero bank account for very long.
Likewise, you won't make withdrawals from zero point energy for very long. Zero point is already the lowest possible energy state that can exist. So if you take energy out of space with the lowest possible energy state, by definition the energy state can't go below the lowest possible energy state, so where did that energy come from?
It's a fantasy you read about or saw on TV like I did, and it's a cool fantasy, but please try to separate science fact from science fiction (though we do have an interesting habit of making science fiction into science fact, but not all of it.)
We do have the ability to put satellites in orbit around the sun, and we do already have microwave transmitters that could beam the energy from the satellite back to Earth. So the only thing making a Dyson Sphere fantasy is time and effort, we pretty much already have the technology to do something like that with satellites.
Talking about using zero point energy as an energy source is a different kind of fantasy, one which has no basis in known science. But if you want to do a trial experiment by making withdrawals from a bank account with zero funds, go ahead and try it, and let us know how it goes. The bank actually likes it when you do that a couple of times so they can charge you big overdraft fees, but eventually they want the balance back at zero or higher. Nature doesn't want space energy going below a zero balance any more than a bank does. So to think you can make withdrawals from either for very long, is, well, pick a word that fits.
The film was also discussed in a letter published in Physics Today that challenges how physics is taught, saying teaching fails to "expose the mysteries physics has encountered [and] reveal the limits of our understanding." In the letter, the authors write "the movie illustrates the uncertainty principle with a bouncing basketball being in several places at once. There's nothing wrong with that. It's recognized as pedagogical exaggeration. But the movie gradually moves to quantum 'insights' that lead a woman to toss away her antidepressant medication, to the quantum channeling of Ramtha, the 35,000-year-old Atlantis god, and on to even greater nonsense." It went on to say that "Most laypeople cannot tell where the quantum physics ends and the quantum nonsense begins, and many are susceptible to being misguided," and that "a physics student may be unable to convincingly confront unjustified extrapolations of quantum mechanics," a shortcoming which the authors attribute to the current teaching of quantum mechanics, in which "we tacitly deny the mysteries physics has encountered."

So here is my dilemma, Arbitrageur...
1. A classical proton is NOT the same as a black hole with radius 1.32 fm. This is obvious in Haramein's scaling graph - as well as in common sense. Your argument is based on the idea that they ARE the same.
2. A black hole is mass above the speed of light. According to your mainstream equation, this would imply that every black hole is more than infinite in mass.
See above, you are confused.
3. Since we already know that the contents of a black hole are traveling faster than the speed of light, doesn't this mean that that equation does not hold true for black holes, or else they ARE all infinite? Or else the equation is wrong?
You are confusing motions and units. The speed of light is a velocity which is unit distance over unit time. Spinning is measured like a car engine in something analogous to RPM's (revolutions per minute) so time is a unit but not distance.
4. It makes sense to me, that if mass is spinning above the speed of light in a black hole, there is no reason the black hole itself shouldn't be able to move at the speed of light. This should have NO consequence whatsoever on the contents inside, or outside.
Yes it's pretty safe to assume he's wrong about a great many things. That doesn't mean he hasn't parroted some real mainstream science somewhere which he might be right about.
Of course, even if he is wrong we have to assume that anyways.

I agree that Haramein is challenging mainstream science. Einstein did the same thing.

AlienScientist — January 02, 2010 — Of all the controversial subjects I have posted videos on, I have never been so violently attacked as I have been for attempting to explore Nassim Haramein's theories... I cover topics like UFOs and Aliens which certainly receive their share of harsh criticism, but it's nothing compared to the backlash I've received from posting videos on Haramein's theory of the Schwarzschild proton... I really want to get to the bottom of this one way or another, I'm not so quick to throw away any theory that might lead to a unified understanding of physics... Especially one that shows possible derivability of the Strong Nuclear Force...

I pulled the quote myself, and just verified it's still there, he didn't edit it. I said it was 4 months ago, right? Well you have to go back to the comments he made 4 months ago. I didn't cite the comment page numbers because those change as people add comments, but at this moment that comment is still just as I quoted it, on page 4 of the comments as they display on my screen. If you can't find it I can post a screenshot, but please look for it first. You can use the search feature of your browser, I use "Edit...find" in Firefox to find words on a page very quickly without having to read the whole page.
Mainstream theory predicts such a small black hole will dissipate almost instantly as it would be extremely unstable, however I'm not even relying on that assumption. Assume for a minute a small black hole like that is possible. I'm not assuming it's the same as a proton, only that both have a non-zero rest mass, which means that neither can travel at c.
The speed of light is a velocity which is unit distance over unit time. Spinning is measured like a car engine in something analogous to RPM's (revolutions per minute) so time is a unit but not distance.
Yes it's pretty safe to assume he's wrong about a great many things.
Take something as simple as the wind. Some days there is no wind where I live, other days there IS wind. Wind is one of the ways the Earth evens out imbalance in temperatures. So every time the wind is blowing, it's because of a temperature imbalance, more or less. So that's a frequent reminder of imbalance to me.
The zero means "ZERO" as in a bank account with zero funds. Sure you might get away with making a withdrawal or two in the short term before the bank stops you and charges overdraft fees and demands the balance be returned to zero or more. But you won't make withdrawals from a zero bank account for very long.

Close enough

Mainstream theory thinks they will dissipate due to HR, correct? It would dissipate not because it is 'unstable', but because it would have such a low mass that the Hawking Radiation would drain it... At least that was my impression.
So the escape velocity of a black hole can exceed the speed of light, yet what is inside the black hole doesn't?!?
I don't know if anything besides effects like quantum entanglement can travel faster than light. But everything we know now says that light travels at the speed of light and matter travels below the speed of light. Theoretically that applies to inside and outside the black hole too but again I don't pretend to know exactly what goes on inside the event horizon, it's a mystery to me.
In order to be inside the event horizon, mass needs to accelerate past the speed of light to get into the black hole, I thought...
That's essentially right, and that's the reason I am unsure about theories that claim to know what goes on inside the event horizon. If we can't observe inside, then I can't say whether those theories are right or not.
The event horizon is the threshold of our perceptive abilities.
The speed of light is a velocity which is unit distance over unit time. Spinning is measured like a car engine in something analogous to RPM's (revolutions per minute) so time is a unit but not distance.
I think that due to the consequence of the theory of 'space-time', Time is also a distance. I guess I would just beg to differ on that point.
And I want to address your post about Zero Point...
Zero Point is named because there IS no Zero.

No one has said that Poplawski endorses Haramein's work.
AlienScientist has said that Poplawski's theory is similar to Haramein's.
So again, what do you think of Poplawski's theory?
