In high school, American students encounter a kind of
wormhole connecting geometry and algebra: Geometric objects like circles and ellipses are linked to algebraic equations like y2 = x3 — x + 1.
ANOTHER LOOKING GLASS In science fiction movies like Stargate and Contact,
wormholes connect distant points in the universe, allowing people to travel from one spot to another in far less time than the hundreds or millions of years required to make the trip at the speed of light, the greatest conventional velocity.
These bubbles are «baby universes,» and the holes are
wormholes connecting our universe with another parallel universe.
Toward that end, scientists will need to discover the laws of quantum gravity, which will help to calculate the stability of
wormholes connecting our universe to others.
This past August, Greek and German physicists used string - theory equations to demonstrate that it may be possible to develop
wormholes connecting our universe to another.

According to Susskind and Maldacena, every pair of entangled particles is
connected by a
wormhole, drastically shortening the distance between them.
Some believe that an advanced civilization might be able to grab one of these holes in the foam and stretch it, giving us a

wormholes are tunnels
connecting two points in space - time.
«

connect two distant regions of the universe, and have been popularized by the dissemination of theoretical physics and by works of science fiction like Stargate, Star Trek or, more recently, Interstellar.
If any two particles are
connected by entanglement, the physicists suggested, then they are effectively joined by a
wormhole.
Kwade
connects horn holes and tubes, and places granite in the upward - facing mouths and detritus of equivalent weight under the downward facing mouths, so as to construct a metaphor that a matter processed by the
wormhole ends up in a different status despite the same mass — the result of a journey in space - time.
