When talking about a wormhole, one could only think about the bridge that connects two regions in the spacetime continuum, centering on a literal hole that warps people in another dimension. And the ...

Wormholes are a sci-fi staple, and and it's possible that they exist in the real universe. But how would they work? Physicists have now used a quantum processor to simulate a traversable wormhole, ...

Philip Ball writes of physicists puzzled over when a simulation of a physical entity, such as a wormhole, in a quantum computer is actually real (12 August, p 40). In my mind, I imagine an animal that ...

Wormholes, theoretical passages through space-time, have captivated scientists and science fiction enthusiasts alike for decades. With the potential to connect distant regions of the universe, ...

The first simulation of a wormhole on a quantum computer may not have been an accurate representation of a wormhole after all. Since the original simulation was announced last year, another group of ...

The idea that wormholes are real may seem far-fetched. In fact, thinking of a tunnel that bores from one point in space to another that is thousands of light-years away seems like something from ...

Wormholes may sound like science fiction, but they could be real. New research shows that wormholes may be hiding on the other side of black holes. Jumping into a wormhole to travel to another galaxy ...

If you ever happen to fall through a wormhole in space, you won’t be coming back. It will snap shut behind you. But you may have just enough time to send a message to the rest of us from the other ...

In some ways, a wormhole might look like a black hole. And the wormhole would look like a sphere, not a hole. Einstein's theory of general relativity allows for the possibility of wormholes, but there ...
