I'm watching "Time Travel" on the science channel.

There are scientist who say its theoreticlly possible to create a wormhole to beat the speed of light. I know some of you will get the urge to challege the issue of them being possible. I'm asking, IF it were possible whats your theory's for the conditions inside the wormhole. What would that be like?

I suppose you are refering to a Morris-Thorne wormhole, which is stable under the condition that you introduce exotic matter into the model. However, let me make note that for a 1m wormhole, you would need to introduce -1,90 . 1027 kg, which is approximately -1 times the mass of Jupiter.

Assuming all this could be done, a stable wormhole would not collapse and traveling through it would be like traveling through regular space, except that the tunnel goes from one point in the universe to another.

If you consider an Einstein-Rosen bridge, then it would be unstable, and the traveler would get ripped apart by gravitational forces.

Hope this helps!

a wormhole theoreticly would be like a mirror when you observed it from the other side you would see nothing but a little visual distortion the front view however, would look like the destination of the wormhole a wormhole is when you bend space until ti is almost touching and then to some how connect the two crests of the bends in the fabric of space and time really when you entered the wormhole you would already be at the other side here is a litt le illistration

In Theory, a Worm Hole literally brings the area to you, think of it like snake II on a Nokia 3310 when he passes off screen to the other side. When you go in it you will see nothing but the place you chose to go with it. For example, imagine you used on to go to France, when you step inside the Worm Hole you will suddenly see the Eiffel tower in front of you.

You would actually shrink to all of us but I think you wouldn't notice it it would seem like you are traveling through a tunnel at first... Then crushing you smaller and speeding you up to beyond the speed of light, where your electrons are striped from the atoms... I think as you would get closer to the black hole the stars or light that would be visable close to the hole would be distorted by the strong gravity...
