Well, /sci/, I'm trying to figure out how a wormhole would come into existence, but it's hard to wrap my head around.
Does it come from any specific physical characteristic e.g. a massive body or high speed?
Let's discuss what is known/unknown about wormholes
Giant alien space worms burrowing through space

its supposed to have enough energy to rip a hole in space-time

Bu-bu-bump

what about black holes and their theorized counterparts white holes? this could prove the existence of this phenomenon.
Quantum entangle two black holes.

& how?

just a small rant referring the last Point: why does everybody assume the the throaht of the worm hole you're suppossed to go through can cause tidal Forces on your vessel? i mean a singularity is the pure definition of nothing yo u no explain?!

I'm not sure that's how quantum entanglement works. Quantum entanglement is between two individual quantum particles, not entire black holes worth of particles. Secondly, all quantum entanglement means is that we can know the spin of one particle if we know the spin of it's entangled partner. This property wouldn't allow for what is effectively teleportation.

There is no known way for a wormhole to come into existence. All theoretically allowed manipulations of space-time preserve topology; creating a wormhole would require changing the topology.
The hope is simply that this breaks down at the quantum gravity scale and so you could somehow find a spontaneous planck-scale wormhole in the quantum foam and enlarge it.

Nothing in Einsteins equations forbid wormholes so you could defenitly make a wormhole.
The problem is tho, that in order to make one you would need negative mass... Which is yet to be found
>>7752429
No, you need negative mass to stabilize them once you've got them.
Within general relativity, there is no way to move from a space without a wormhole in it to a space with a wormhole in it.

Ah, that makes sense, thanks for the clarification.

The greater the curvature of space-time, the greater the Tidal forces.

Do you really think black holes are the size of planets?

underrated post
i just think they are necessary in balancing the universe. nature's recycling.
