Study Notes

Wormholes appear spherical and can provide a window to a faraway place when light passes through.
Einstein's theory of relativity changed the perception of space as a flat stage, showing it as a dynamic entity affected by objects on it.
Wormholes could be possible through the bending and warping of space, theoretically allowing for faster-than-light travel.
Einstein-Rosen Bridges were the first theorized wormholes, connecting black holes to parallel universes with the concept of white holes.
Traversable Wormholes, a different kind of wormhole needed for human travel, may exist if string theory is accurate.
Man-made wormholes would require exotic matter to keep them open and stable, as gravity tends to close them.
The vacuum of space may contain exotic matter needed to stabilize wormholes, potentially enabling interstellar human civilization.
