The headline says wormholes are fully traversable and then you read in the article

“So microscopic clumps of atoms could travel through this wormhole, but not people.”

LOL

what would cause space-time to neatly fold? I understand the concept of the curves, such as those caused by mass or gravitation on light for example, but these diagrams of space-time neatly folded and parallel, while meant to be symbolic or conceptual, are just too convenient for a ‘wormhole’ than can be traversed.

In this neo pagan era, there are people who have a desperate emotional need to believe that aliens are visiting earth and are about to make incredible revelations that will give their vapid lives some meaning

Here we go again.

There are no wormholes. But there are physicists seeking big grants.

Equations don’t fully describe reality, and that’s the problem. Taking the equations as predictions of what will happen is not very scientific.

All you need is the spice.

Good luck trying to get it from the worms.

You will need at least a 40 watt plasma rifle with extra batteries.

And some FRiends.

Quantum entanglement fascinates me. I think it proves there is definitely a layer of reality we’re missing.

The only catch is you would have to be in a quantum state.

Not a "little" catch is it?

I think I’ll go into the space energy business... Next to a wormhole I’ll build a station and have a sign saying: Last rest stop for next 10 light years... 😀

The only thing at the other side of a wormhole is a black hole.

Not a good trip, other than you accelerate to the speed of light before disintegrating into oblivion.
