The concept was first discussed by Hermann Weyl in 1921. The term was coined in 1957 by John Wheeler, who also invented the term "black hole."
A wormhole is a theoretical construct. As wormholes are not known to exist, they cannot have a position in the heavens we can locate and present an ephemeris for.
The existence of wormholes has not been confirmed.
Wormholes are hypothetical constructs; it is not know whether they exist, or whether they can be constructed. Hypothetically, they might allow travelling long distances instantly, or even travel to the past. This of course seems quite unlikely, but it is still an area of active research.
We don't even know yet whether wormholes actually exist, or even whether they can exist. It seems a little premature to speculate on the exact details.We don't even know yet whether wormholes actually exist, or even whether they can exist.

EVERYWHERE! If theory is correct then teeny tiny wormholes permeate the entire fabric of the universe, i.e. they are everywhere, you are probably surrounded by Quadrillions right now! pretty cool, huh?
Einstein
It is not even known whether there ARE any wormholes. Wormholes are very hypothetical.
Wormholes are not confirmed to exist.
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.
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.
Wormholes are, at best, theoretical. It is thought however, that our sun does not have sufficient mass or energy to create a wormhole.
Sadly, no.
no. worms live in holes in the ground that they dig in the dirt after it rains. wormholes are something in space.

A wormhole is a theoretical construct. As wormholes are not known to exist, they cannot have a position in the heavens we can locate and present an ephemeris for.
The concept of wormholes was first theorized by physicist Ludwig Flamm in 1916, but it was theoretical physicist Kip Thorne who made significant contributions to our understanding of wormholes in the 20th century. He worked on the physics of wormholes and helped popularize the concept through his research and writings.
If you are referring to wormholes in space, then this would come under the study of astrophysics- it would also overlap into the study of cosmology.
