Abstract
In mathematics, a proof for the Goldbach strong conjecture in the context of even numbers remains outstanding, but a proof has been given for the Goldbach weak conjecture in the context of odd numbers. This paper sets out results from an exploration of both conjectures purely from a twin prime perspective. Based on the findings of those explorations, two additional conjectures are being put forward which, if they hold, will form another angle from which a proof may eventually be found for the still unresolved Twin Prime conjecture.
