SUMMARY

Wormholes are theorized to exist and can be accessed, but their representation is often limited to three dimensions, which does not accurately convey their four-dimensional nature. The curvature of space-time in a four-dimensional context complicates visualization and understanding. Discussions highlight that while wormholes may exist, the practical implications of using them for travel, especially for massive objects like astronauts, are fraught with challenges, particularly due to the destructive forces at a black hole's event horizon.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of general relativity and space-time concepts
  • Familiarity with black hole physics and event horizons
  • Basic knowledge of dimensional theory, particularly four-dimensional space
  • Awareness of cosmological theories regarding wormholes
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the mathematical framework of general relativity and its implications for wormhole theory
  • Explore the properties of black holes and their event horizons in detail
  • Study visual representations of four-dimensional objects and their significance in theoretical physics
  • Investigate current scientific literature on the feasibility of traversable wormholes
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for theoretical physicists, cosmologists, and anyone interested in advanced concepts of space-time and wormhole theories.

WORMHOLES EXIST AND DONT EXIST they exist and can be accessed, but the postulate and justification on a wormhole is in a 3-d visual. in a 4-d visual- which our universe is, the curvature of a single space-time object will have its own curvature spot. on a 4-d scale. i can't visually show it because i don't know how 4-d looks like and i don't think any1 knows soo please try to coop uo and understand this

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. When you see a "picture" of a wormhole yes it's a 3-d representation, but anyone formulating theories about them knows it is scaled up a dimension. I'm not sure, but are you saying that because of this 3-d simplification, the 4-d analog is incorrect?
 
Hey guys, this is my first post so pls be kind, think I found a cosmology forum that isn't too littered with equations to put me off (any other good forums u suggest guys?)

As for Wormholes... I read they could potentially exist within a black hole somewhere away from the central singularity.

As for 4-d euclidean representation... how on Earth (haha) are we meant to visualize this... the human mindset is in 3d.

I can't see how an astronaut could "use" a wormhole to travel across spacetime, as they would be ripped to pieces at the event horizon right? Anything entering a black hole is just converted into mass and rotation of the hole itself?

I can only imagine massless particles using wormholes... and if light can't even escape the event horizon how could a photon "escape" the black hole by using a wormhole within it.

Pls explain :o)
