How are wormholes a theoretical means of travel?

Question

How are wormholes a theoretical means of travel if black holes 'destroy' matter once the matter enters it? if something travels into a black hole it will be ripped apart, correct? so how have scientists proved it is theoretically possible for wormhole travel if the travelling object will be ripped apart?

Answer 1

Scientists have long theorized that the universe is actually four- dimensional (not including time). That it appears to be a three dimensional universe looking at the immediately surrounding area but if you were to look at it on a large enough scale it would actually occupy a fourth dimension and that space would "fold over" itself. A wormhole would then be a theoretical "shortcut" between two different points by traveling through this fourth dimension where the universe has sort of folded over itself.

To use a 2D-3D example, imagine a piece of paper. Imagine two points on the middle of each end then have the paper folded so one of the points is sitting almost on top of each other. The paper would be analogous to a section of the universe. Using only 2D thinking, the only way for someone to travel between the two points would be to travel all the way down one side of the paper then back to the other point on the other side of the paper, going about 11 inches. A wormhole, however, would be represented by a traveler going through the paper and moving the 0.1 inches or so it would take to get to the other point.

I'm not sure how wormholes would relate to black holes.

Answer 2

Nothing that enter a blackhole gets ripped a part it gets crushed down but still will have the same mass as the original object like a planet can be crushed to the size of 0.001 microns long!

Answer 3

I dont know about this things either but it also possible for it to regenerate it self at the point of re-entry like the movie Timeline with paul walker

Answer 4

A worm hole is not a black hole. a worm hole is supposed to be a shortcut in space a black hole is a void
