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."

How do wormholes form?

It is not even known whether there ARE any wormholes. Wormholes are very hypothetical.


Are there wormholes in the milky way?

Wormholes are not confirmed to exist.


Are theorized wormholes considered to transport something through it faster than the speed of light 'comma' slower 'comma' the same 'comma' or varying?

Theorized wormholes are thought to potentially transport objects faster than the speed of light. This is because they create a shortcut through spacetime, allowing for almost instantaneous travel between two distant points. However, the physics of wormholes is highly theoretical and not yet fully understood.


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 any possibility to create wormhole with sun's energy in our galaxy?

Wormholes are, at best, theoretical. It is thought however, that our sun does not have sufficient mass or energy to create a wormhole.


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.

Who founded the wormhole?

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.


Is there an ephemeris for wormholes?

There is no known ephemeris for wormholes as they are speculative theoretical constructs and have not been observed or confirmed to exist in reality. Wormholes are often used in science fiction as a plot device, but their existence remains purely theoretical in the realm of physics.
