A wormhole is a hypothetical structure which connects disparate points in spacetime. It may be visualized as a tunnel with two ends at separate points in spacetime (i.e., different locations, different points in time, or both). Wormholes are based on a special solution of the Einstein field equations. [1]
Real or not, wormholes can still give scientists crucial insight into our universe.
In an attempt to make the physics of the wormhole travel at least semi-plausible, large amounts of ANEC-violating exotic energy are required to maintain the holes, which are nevertheless large objects which must be maintained on the outermost reaches of the planetary systems concerned.

Nathan Rosen (Hebrew: נתן רוזן; March 22, 1909 – December 18, 1995) was an American and Israeli physicist noted for his study on the structure of the hydrogen molecule and his collaboration with Albert Einstein and Boris Podolsky on entangled wave functions and the EPR paradox.
The key to the whole idea is wormholes—specifically, a type of wormhole called a ring wormhole. Now, wormholes are already entirely theoretical, so this discussion is going to get weird. And ...
A scientist believes his working blueprint for a lab-based wormhole moves us toward “counterportation," a teleportation-like concept.
The alternative way of connecting the surfaces makes the "connection map" appear the same at both mouths. This configuration reverses the "handedness" or "chirality" of any objects passing through. If a spaceship pilot writes the word "IOTA" on the inside of their forward window, then, as the ship's nose passes through the wormhole and the ship's window intersects the surface, an observer at ...
In general relativity, a Roman ring (proposed by Matt Visser in 1997 [1] and named after the Roman arch, a concept proposed by Mike Morris and Kip Thorne in 1988 and named after physicist Tom Roman) [2] is a configuration of wormholes where no subset of wormholes is near to chronology violation, though the combined system can be arbitrarily close to chronology violation.
