Wormholes

[adam_rockstar]

a few questions about wormholes:

-what kind of spacing do wormholes have?... the distance from the start to the end

 

-is it possible for a wormhole to transport matter into something else

 

-how big are wormholes

 

-and do wormholes transport into different times?

 

:eek_big:

No idea... and I dont think anyone can claim to have an idea, though it would seem logical if they do exsist that they can be any size and that they could go through dimensions of time as well as space..

Check out our hypography on wormholes.

 

Some dead links now, but lots of useful info.

:rolleyes: thx guys... endless possibilities... for now

Hmmm.... there was an article a few months ago in the American Scientific "Time Special". If you can get your hands on one, I think you would enjoy it very much.

Worm holes are a fascinating topic.

 

We can travel forward in time using relativity.

 

But as far as I know, only worm holes can take us back. So if we want to master time travel, at least theoretically, we need to find a worm hole.

we can travel forward in time under any theory :eek_big: infact you dont need to do anything!

 

also the trouble may not lie in finding one, but actually traversing one would proove more difficult

Well the article that I was referring to in my earlier post discussed how time travel could be achieved using worm holes.

Pretty interesting eh?

As a passing-by remark, I feel that wormholes need some very hard re-evaluation on our scientific theories.

As a passing-by remark, I feel that wormholes need some very hard re-evaluation on our scientific theories.

Do you mean “current scientific theories need re-evaluation based on observations of wormholes” or “the possibility of wormholes existing needs re-evaluation based on current scientific theories”?

 

It’s important to note that while current theory suggest that large wormholes may be possible, and nearly unobservable and sub-sub-microscopic ones may be common, there’s currently no observational data to support that either large or small wormholes actually exist.

 

Current best theory is very lacking in suggestions for how to construct a wormhole artificially, mostly suggesting that some sort of “exotic matter” exhibiting gravitational repulsion would be required. This is in effect answering an unknown existence question (can wormholes exist?) with another (can gravitationally repulsive matter exist?).

 

(Of course, all of the above is to-the-best-of-my-(inexpert)-knowledge)

The Einstien-Rosen bridge is a mathmatical solution to equations we use to desribe our universe ron, this is how black holes where first postulated also, no we beleive we actually know the location of several black holes. The problem with wormholes is that we *cant* see them even if they did exsist.
