Okay, I'm trying to get a grasp of how exactly wormholes function, how they form, etc. Please correct any and all flaws/mistakes in my understanding and further educate me, if you please. :)
My mind is drawing a blank on the other questions and concerns I had. I'll probably add more by tomorrow.
Thanks for any and all help!
- A wormhole could, theoretically, span any distance. Though the greater the distance (relative to our view and distance measurement of the cosmos from earth), the larger the black and white holes creating it would have to be.
- In order to be able to successfully travel through a wormhole, one end would have to be formed from a black hole (the side of entrance) and the other a white hole (the side of exit). Internally would need to be a ring of some kind of matter with negative mass but positive surface pressure to prevent it from collapsing. Theoretically, though, this kind of exotic matter would not be required? If you timed it right you could pass through safely before it collapsed?
- The travel time would be almost (if not) instantaneous, correct? Certainly faster than any kind of travel produced from our technology these days?
