A new study outlines a method for detecting a speculative phenomenon that has long captured the imagination of sci-fi fans: wormholes, which form a passage between two separate regions of spacetime.

Solutions to Einstein's famous equations back in the 20th century describe 'wormholes,' or tunnels through space-time. Mark Garlick/Science Photo Library via GettyImages Imagine two towns on two ...

A proposed method to detect a traversable wormhole at the Milky Way's center involves observing the orbital perturbations of the star S2, which orbits the supermassive black hole. The presence of a ...

Could the first stable wormholes be more like ... real worms? The wormhole design that could eventually succeed is tiny and strangely shaped, Iranian researchers say. No word on whether these ...

Wormholes, also known as an Einstein-Rosen bridge, are commonly used in sci-fi stories as a way to quickly zip between distant parts of the universe. Sci-fi writers have long leaned on the wormhole as ...

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, ...

Everybody wants a wormhole. I mean, who wants to bother traveling the long-and-slow routes throughout the universe, taking tens of thousands of years just to reach yet another boring star? Not when ...

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 ...

Imagine two towns on two opposite sides of a mountain. People from these towns would probably have to travel all the way around the mountain to visit one another. But, if they wanted to get there ...
