is it possible

[inceptetion]

when your in a dream it can take on real life physics or dream physics, however is it possible in a lucid dream to obtain real life facts from current time since its funny how the mind can generate an almost realistic world, so like can you get knowledge from a dream and it be of real life, basically like being a scientist, but your inteligence comes from your dreams and you follow what your dreams say, almost like a subconsious guide?

Many believe that in lucid dreams, you can obtain previously-forgotten information from your subconscious by means of speaking to dream characters - who might be manifestations of your subconscious. Learning entirely new information that you've never known before, however, is another story altogether and one that I'm very skeptical of being able to happen. If you don't know something (eg. the world population), you cannot acquire the info from within your own mind because you have to physically discover the answers. If you were to try and get an answer, you'd probably get something very off.

The CIA spent 20 million USD on scientists doing exactly that, but they found no evidence of value to the intelligence community.

Funny - $20 mil on the actual project, while the budget for Men Who Stare at Goats was $24 mil! It's true - just looked it up. Hollywood has more clout (and more money) than the US government.

I tried doing that once - learning my entire physics syllabus in a single lucid encounter. Epic fail.

When you're in a lucid dream, you don't have access to "new knowledge." A dream is a succession of thoughts, images, sounds or emotions which the mind experiences during sleep, manifested by the human subconscious using pieces of information gathered by you during consciousness. However, new ideas can form: in a dream your sense of logic is severely diminished, therefore it is possible to associate completely unrelated things together than you may not even have considered in your waking hours. For example, Nobel Prize winner Niels Bohr revolutionised physics when his dream of horses running around a race track offered a clue to atomic structure. So, the bottom line is - you don't learn anything new in a lucid dream, but it can generate fascinating and comical ideas that can inspire you.

Great answer, in short, you can remember stuff and form ideas in your dreams which you wouldnt be able to do in real life.
