I know the wormholes are a staple of almost every science fiction show. And it's no surprise: wormholes are shortcuts through space-time. When traveling to distant parts of the universe your choices ...

Wormholes are theoretical objects that could serve as portals between two points in space and time. Some believe they could even act as passageways to other universes. But if one did exist, what would ...

The detection of a cosmic signal of disconcerting brevity has perplexed astrophysicists. Its atypical form opens the door to interpretations that go beyond conventional frameworks. This ...

Time travel through a wormhole is technically feasible under the rules of theoretical physics—the only catch is that we can only ever go backward. In a blog post for Forbes, astrophysicist Ethan ...

Wormholes, also known as an Einstein-Rosen bridge, are commonly used in sci-fi stories as a way to quickly zip between distant parts of the universe. Sci-fi writers have long leaned on the wormhole as ...

Solutions to Einstein's famous equations back in the 20th century describe 'wormholes,' or tunnels through space-time. Mark Garlick/Science Photo Library via GettyImages Imagine two towns on two ...

Wormholes are a staple of sci-fi, and there’s a possibility that they exist in the real universe. But how would they work? Physicists have now used a quantum processor to simulate a traversable ...

Einstein-Rosen or “ER” bridges, are equivalent to entangled quantum particles, also known as Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen or “EPR” pairs. The quantum connection between wormholes prevents their collapse ...

In May 2019, astronomers picked up something strange in the fabric of spacetime. The LIGO and Virgo detectors recorded a gravitational wave that lasted just one-tenth of a second. The signal, known as ...

While the simplest theoretical wormholes immediately collapse and disappear before anything can get through, Thorne wondered whether it might be possible for an “infinitely advanced” sci-fi ...
