If you were close enough you would fall right in regardless of your speed as a wormhole (if such things exist) would behave practically the same as a blackhole (which have been shown to exist).

Do you travel at the speed of light in a wormhole?

Nobody has measured this, and it isn't even known whether a wormhole actually exist. Probably not - they are very hypothetical. The idea of a wormhole, however, is that it would let you travel instantly, or almost instantly, from one point to another, distant, point. From the point of view of an outside observer, this would let you travel much faster than the speed of light - and therefore, it would also be possible to travel backwards in time.


Can a person enter a wormhole?

Theoretically, a wormhole would be so unstable that it would collapse if anything, even a single atom or photon, passed through it. However, some theories suggest that adding energy to a wormhole could stabilize it to a point where matter could pass through.


How does wormholes affect time travel?

Time travel is not possible. The effects of a wormhole would depend on the author of the story you are reading.


Where can a wormhole take you?

A wormhole, if you were to dive into it, can take you anywhere in space or time. So say the science-fiction delighters, who ignore the fact that you can't survive a leap into a wormhole. Wormholes are hypothetical, mathematically possible but unobserved and therefore hypothetical. If a wormhole were to take you back in time, it could only take you as far back as the age of the wormhole. A wormhole has two ends, an in and an out. Imagine the out end oscillating at the speed of light from the moment the wormhole forms. Time stops for that end of the wormhole relative to the in end which oscillates at a leisurely pace in this illustration. Imagine you leave the wormhole from its birth for a year and then leap into the in end. You would emerge from the out end a year into the past. Imagine leaving the wormhole for a century. You could jump in and emerge from the out end a century into the past. But you can't travel back to a time older than the wormhole.


Can you travel faster than light if you take advantage of wormholes and that would it not affect the relativity?

I am pretty sure a wormhole is just bending the fabric of space and making a wrinkle and going through the wrinkle to the other side, if light were to follow you into the wormhole, it'd go faster than you, if it were not and depending on the span of the wormhole, you could theoretically beat the light by taking it as a shortcut


What would happen if you were to be sucked into a wormhole?

Information on the theory of the space form, wormholes, is still being looked into and found. I will now write for you a quotation, speaking of a theory that my co-worker and I have constructed. 'A theory that we have on the possibility, probability and theory of wormholes, is that you would come across the wormhole, and become sucked into it. It would then take around a year, you would get stretched and pulled, until, eventually, you would emerge on the opposite side, in a completely different time zone.' My co-worker's name shall not be written, but I must say that I have great faith in his watchful eye and mind. He and I have also said that we believe that wormholes could stretch as long and far as possible, and that it is like a door hinge, it swings only one way, or in this case, you can only enter through one way. We believe that you could most likely only enter through one side, and that you might never be able to go back to your own time zone, unless it was a very tiny wormhole that took only a few months to travel around. That is theory on what might happen to you when in a wormhole.


If a person were to travel through a wormhole and survive how would it happen?

unknown But since you've already postulated two items so far unobserved and unknown to science ... a wormhole, and a person traveling through one ... the story is completely in your control, and you might as well keep going and make up a description of what happens to him. It would depend on the size of the wormhole. One the diameter of a donut would do the traveler serious harm. One the size of a bus wouldn't. The survivor would merely end up somewhere else.


Can a human go through a worm hole?

No ______________________________________________________________________ well, the answer is no for now, a glaxy is a straight line thorugh to the other side but when a worm hole is made it curves the galaxy to a large U allowing passagee through instead of around, however we do not yet have a ship the can stand the quick change in speed nd it would tear us apart into small bits but pieces wuld make it through.


How much time would it take to get to the sun from here through a wormhole if wormholes exist?

It shouldn't take any time at all, you may even go back in time a little. But you would not be able to get from here to the sun because you would have to be very close to a black hole to enter a wormhole, and it would spit you out at a "white hole," and I don't think that these have actually been observed as of yet, so they may not exist.


If you go into a black hole will it take you a different dimension?

No. I think the powerful gravity would crush you first.add. But maybe you would be pulled apart first by the gravity gradient, which would be formidable.AnswerThere is a theory that two black holes can link up together forming a wormhole, and enabling travel between the two different places in space. However this is highly speculative, and probably just science - fiction. An Einstein - Rosen bridge is a theoretical example of a wormhole, but it has been found that it would be far too unstable to travel through.


What is the wormhole capable of?

Since there is no definitive proof of their existence and thus there is no way to experimentally confirm or disband our theoretical formulae and calculations nobody knows. If you are to believe the original theory behind the wormhole, the concept of the Einstein-Rosen Bridge, come up with by Albert Einstein, then a wormhole is very, very, very, very, very tiny and exists for such a short period of time that nothing is ever really going to get through it. Beyond Einsteins idea, modern theoretical physicists believe there is a great number of things a wormhole could be capable of. It is thought that if you could make an artificial wormhole by expanding one (with ridiculous amounts of hyper-concentrated planck energy), propping it open (possibly with some form of exotic matter) and (according to Stephen Hawking) absorbing the massive radiation "feedback" that such a warping of spacetime creates the a wormhole could theoretically: 1. Transport matter, electromagnetic radiation and energy vast distances, technically, faster than the speed of light without actually passing the speed of light. 2. Travel through time (related to point 1 as a wormhole is a passage through SPACETIME, not just space). 3. Travel to parallel Universes! In every case above it is heavily debated whether or not a wormhole (if one could be created) could be used to get to a particular place, time or universe or combination of these three. It is entirely possible, indeed likely, that a wormhole would just dump its passengers at a completely random point in timespace! If this is true it would really be a rather poor form of travel.


Is it possible for a wormhole to be sucked inside a black hole?

No - In fact, the hypothetical concept of a wormhole is the pairing of black hole with a white hole to create a "shortcut" (tube or tunnel) through SpaceTime. Also known as an Einstein-Rosen Bridge, a wormhole is a hypothetical topological feature of SpaceTime, which, if it were even possible, would be too unstable to be maintained. Therefore a wormhole would not be "suck up" by a black hole, because the wormhole is an extension of a black hole. Rather wormholes would independently destabilize and evaporate, allowing the black hole to continue on into existence.
