The word "theory" derives from the Greek word "theoria", meaning "to look at".  'Theory' has multiple meanings depending on the context of discussion. In everyday life, people use the word "theory" to signify "speculation", "opinion" or "hypothesis". However, "theories" do not necessarily mean facts or opinions. In the science field, scientists understand theories to be well established and verifiable models of interaction.  

      "The moment a person forms a theory, his imagination sees in every object only the traits which favor that theory."                                                                                                                                                                 -Thomas Jefferson

The National Academy of Sciences describes the word theory in the following way: Some scientific explanations are so well established that no new evidence is likely to alter them. The explanation becomes a scientific theory. In everyday language a theory means a hunch or speculation. Not so in science. In science, the word theory refers to a comprehensive explanation of an important feature of nature that is supported by many facts gathered over time. Theories also allow scientists to make predictions about as yet unobserved phenomena.

Quarks Don't Exist

When I studied atomic, I was comfortable with the macro-level description: an atom is made up of a positively charged nucleus orbited by fast moving electrons that are arranged in shells known as orbitals. Then I studied the current theory of sub-atomic structures. We now that the nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons, but what are these made of? The current theory, the Quark Theory, tells us that they are made up of 3 colours of quarks arranged in a peculiar way. What's more, the quarks can only exist in the protons and neutrons i.e. they cannot be isolated.

Radioactivity shows us that the nucleus can emit beta particles which are electrons that move faster the orbital electrons. Sometimes, the nucleus emits positrons which are positively charged electrons. At other times, the nucleus can absorb an orbital electron which changes the chemical properties of the atom. This process is used to be called K-capture but now it's plain old electron capture. In this case, the proton that absorbs the electron becomes a neutron and the atomic number is reduced by one i.e. it changes its identity.

To me, this destroys the quark theory hands down. My conspiracy theory is that scientists were paid trillions of dollars to figure out what matter is made of and they drew a blank. To justify this gianormous expenditure, they concocted the Quark Theory. But, because they couldn’t prove it physically, they insisted that quarks cannot exist outside the nucleonic particles.

So, What if time was a particle, like the higgs, and reacted with matter to make matter move. Or screwed with the vibrations or the strings from the string theory. This might be a waste of your time im only a teen I dont know alot about science.

My theory challenges many concepts in today's understood physics and mathematics. 

  • The mathematical concept of "nothing" and conservation of mass. 
Before the big bang, nothing existed. "Nothing" isn't the same as zero, zero is a numerical value whereas nothing is a conceptual value; such as infinity. So when nothing is divided by zero it gives a base for mathematics; yielding infinity on both sides of the equation. You bring one over, it inverts into negative infinity and they cancel out. This proof is what I refer to as the "Static Prevention of Matter" 
  • The Big Bang and Conservation of Energy
Assuming matter can be create and destroyed instantaneously, perhaps the first deviation of time had to do with energy altering this equation. The conservation of mass is being challenged, but the conservation of energy, however, is not. Energy existed in order to integrate itself into anti-matter charging the "anti-" out in the form of an electron leaving behind a proton. Now that the anti-matter is separated, the original matter can exist as a neutron. The next moment of time the energy that seperated the Electron from it's sister Proton created an outward explosion of Electrons, a much less outward eruption of protons, and a solid core of Neutrons.
  • Magnetic Fields and Gravitational Waves
After the initial explosion disorganization began. When the first electron turned back in due it's attraction with another proton (it wouldn't be attracted to it's sister) that set the direction of the magnetic field. Soon all the electrons were rushing back towards the center as Protons were being pulled outward. As this continued, centrifugal forces became more relevant and acted on all froms of mass and energy. The core of Neutrons was pulled apart and sent outward whereas the path of travel for the electrons became more resistant the closer they got to the center. This is due to the concept of gravitational waves decompressing out from the center-black-hole. 
  • Earth and Life. 
As centrifugal forces determined the balance of matter over time, the Earth was being created. First, the most dense elements (with the most protons) made it to the outside edge first; which is what the current model refers to as the core of the Earth. Elements and compounds followed in order of density there-after. When H2O made it's way, or at least when Hydrogen and Oxygen landed. The possibility for life began.
