Theoretical research led by Professor Enrique Gaztañaga of the University of Portsmouth challenges the ...

Wormholes have long served as science fiction’s favorite shortcut through the cosmos, but a growing body of theoretical physics research suggests they will never function as tunnels. That does not ...

Wormholes have been popularized in science fiction, from the film 'Interstellar' to the series 'Stargate' and 'Star Trek'. These mysterious portals could be the key to traveling vast distances ...

Back in the prehistoric days of theoretical astrophysics (1985), in a mystical and exotic corner of planet Earth (Fresno, California), a man sat in the back of a car and tried to break the spacetime ...

Featured prominently in books like "The Forever War," games like "Portal," and films like "Interstellar," wormholes have got to be the most popular natural phenomenon in sci-fi, and we don't even know ...

Astronomy enthusiasts are my kinda people. Like me, they love all sorts of science, and science fiction, too — particularly films that lead us into a dystopian, mysterious, explorative future we can’t ...

In a book to be published this October, physicist Paul Halpern will explain how to build and use a cosmic wormhole as an interstellar shortcut to distant parts of the universe, or to travel backward ...
