Yes, there is a difference between a black hole and a dark hole. The black hole is that "monster of the universe" that is the remnants of a collapsed massive star. It is a place of extreme gravity, and gravity is so great that nothing, not even light, can escape. And because not even light can escape, it is "black" in there. It's a black hole. A dark hole is a term usually applied to something that is not illuminated well enough to see into, like a deep crater on the moon or another planet. This deep "hole" in the surface might be lit from the side, leaving the "inside" of it in darkness. The hole is "dark" inside, and we derive the name from that fact. No astronomer will apply the term "dark hole" to a black hole because of the differences.

A wormhole is a type of black hole that may be "passageways" to other universes.
To be a wormhole, a black hole must have its own corresponding "white hole" that is on the other side.

Wormholes are only theoretical and may or may not be true. Other universes also are theoretical.

Yes because there is a theory that tells that when you fall in a black hole, you are not destroyed but you are "teleported" to a white hole. The wormhole is a tunnel that connects a black hole to a white hole.

Perhaps. We're not sure if the idea of a "wormhole" has any real meaning beyond a cute mathematical trick that may - PERHAPS - be related to rapidly spinning black holes. Or if this is just a trick of our inability to express complex theories in words. We also cannot perceive more than three spatial dimensions, although the math suggests there are (possibly?) more.

Heck, WE'RE so backwards that we actually believe that the speed of light is a limit!

1. Black hole are definitely real.

2. In the law of physics, wormhole can possibly exists, but no one ever found a wormhole or seen. there is no evidence that wormhole can exist.3. Black holes are made from supernova.

4. Black holes suck everything into it.

5. You use wormhole as time machine.

6. You can travel to other universes using a wormhole.

A black hole is a very massive object that other objects can fall into and not escape.

A wormhole is a connection between 2 points in the universe, that hasn't been proven to exist yet

If you know what a black hole is, and a white hole, then a wormhole is the space that connects a black hole to a white hole. (If you survive, which, you will not.)

Do black holes really have wormholes?

they look like worm holes but even bigger. they are in space


Are there wormholes in the universe?

Wormholes, aka "Einstein-Rosen bridges," were once thought to connect quasars and black holes. It is now known that quasars ARE black holes, and there is no evidence they are connected to anything. Black holes are pinched off spaces of our universe, exotic and strange, but not mystically mysterious. It remains theoretically possible we could manufacture connections to other points in space-time or other dimensions (universes) through "wormholes," or something like them, however what is possible is sometimes also unlikely. Wormholes are not particularly likely.


Is there a possibility that wormholes and black holes are gateways to other dimensions in this universe?

Yes, it's possible but we really just don't know.


Do worms live in wormholes?

no. worms live in holes in the ground that they dig in the dirt after it rains. wormholes are something in space.


Are black holes alien's warm holes?

1) It isn't known whether aliens (in the sense of extraterrestrial life) exist. 2) It isn't known whether wormholes exist. 3) No aliens are required to explain black holes; black holes form quite naturally as a result of the collapse of a massive star.


How can wormholes play a part in the universe?

Wormholes open up holes in space that once you enter one it could take you to another place in the galaxy or time. Hence the name wormholes.


What are facts about about space?

It is really big, and is still growing. Black holes and white holes may join to form tunnels called wormholes - scientists believe this maybe the secret to time travel ..

Do black holes create a tunnels between space and time?

No one knows but people have said that wormholes may exist inside a black hole that can transport you to another place in space and time.


Is the black hole a wormhole?

Probably not. The existence of black holes can be considered to be confirmed; the existence of wormholes is highly speculative, that is, they probably don't exist at all. According to String Theory, worm hole does exist. However black holes are not warm holes. Even if you did found a wormhole, it probably going to be only about 1 atom small.


How are black holes related to stars?

Black holes are the result of the gravitational collapse of a large star.
