White holes have never been observed, though general relativity predicts they could exist in principle.
White holes are black holes that run backwards in time, throwing out matter instead of sucking it in.
The recipe for this unlikely object involves an even more abstruse entity, the white hole.

Stephen Hsu of the University of Oregon in Eugene considered the special case of a white hole sitting in a perfect vacuum.
One reason is that white holes are exotic creatures whose existence is speculated by theorists, but believed by few because no one has ever seen one.
Using an optical fiber and laser light, physicists have simulated a «white hole» — essentially a black hole working in reverse — as they report on page 1367 of this week's issue of Science.
White holes, in contrast, blow out a constant stream of matter and light — so much so that nothing can enter them.
One is equivalent to a black hole, the other to its «reverse», a white hole — which photons can approach but never enter.
The overall set - up is akin to putting a white hole inside a black hole, such that any light injected in between the horizons would bounce back and forth, neither able to enter the white hole nor escape from the black hole (see diagram).
You can't go to the centre of the galaxy and put a white hole inside the black hole there»
In this scenario, after you enter a black hole, you (or your spaghettified remains) enter a «tunnel» and come out many light - years away through a white hole, the opposite of a black hole.
As it approaches the white hole, its wavelength would get squished like a cartoon car hitting a wall, «blue shifting» from its original colour to ultraviolet.
The idea of nesting a white hole inside a black hole to create a laser was originally suggested in 1999 by Ted Jacobson of the University of Maryland, College Park.
While a black hole is like the Hotel California — you can check in, but you can never leave — you can leave a white hole, but never check back in.
They're mathematically possible, but no one has ever found evidence of a worm - or white hole.
When an infrared pulse was then injected, they told New Scientist, the white hole converted it to ultraviolet, just as predicted.
«You can't go to the centre of the galaxy and put a white hole inside the black hole.»
As the bouncing light approaches the white hole's event horizon, where the refractive index suddenly increases, its wavelength would get squished like a cartoon car hitting a wall, «blue shifting» from its original colour to ultraviolet.
That's because, unlike two mirrors facing each other, the event horizons of a white hole and a black hole have the opposite effect on light reaching them.
Back in 1999 Ted Jacobson of the University of Maryland, College Park, suggested replacing the two mirrors with a black hole and its «reverse» — a white hole.
Never detected in the wild, a white hole allows photons to approach but never lets them in.
Light injected in between the horizons would bounce back and forth, as it can neither enter the white hole nor escape from the black hole.
Faccio is hopeful: he points out that the properties of the white hole that cause light to blue - shift arise from the same mathematics as Hawking's equations — so if the blue shift is observed, the red - shift stretching should be there too.
When a pulse of infrared light was then injected, the «white hole» left by the first pulse converted it into ultraviolet light, just as predicted — though the researchers haven't yet submitted this result for publication.
Technically this bathtub version is a white hole, an inverted black hole that keeps waves out rather than sucking them in.
Since then, Leonhardt has continued to study other novel optical phenomena, such as making an analog of a white hole — sort of the opposite of a black hole — in an optical fiber (Science, 7 March 2008, p. 1321).
Researchers sketched dozens of models, employing the gamut of astrophysical mysteries — from flare stars in our own galaxy to exploding stars, mergers of charged black holes, white holes, evaporating black holes, oscillating primordial cosmic strings, and even aliens sailing through the cosmos using extragalactic light sails.
