“The whole thing is very hypothetical at this point,” Stephen Hsu said of wormholes, a caution that still defines the subject ...

It’s one small step for scientists, one quantum leap for mankind! Physicists created a “theoretical” wormhole and sent a message through it without disrupting space and time — potentially paving the ...

It’s Thursday. You’re tired, maybe hungover. The weekend is nearly here. But before all that, we’ve got some physics for you to sink your teeth into. We’re talking wormholes, black holes, and quantum ...

Scientists made headlines last week for supposedly generating a wormhole. The research, reported in Nature, involves the use of a quantum computer to simulate a wormhole in a simplified model of ...

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 ...

In May 2019, astronomers picked up something strange in the fabric of spacetime. The LIGO and Virgo detectors recorded a gravitational wave that lasted just one-tenth of a second. The signal, known as ...
