How humans could travel millions of light years to distant planets

A wormhole, much like a black hole, is a structure which arises when gravity is so strong that it bends the fabric of the universe.

Einstein's theories about the universe predict that spacetime can be bent in such a way that it creates a 'bridge' between two different points in the spacetime.

The connection between these distant points is what scientists call a wormhole.

Theoretically, there is no limit on how far we could travel that way, with two distant points could be billions of light years away along the wormhole and only a few seconds away.

While wormholes are theoretically possible, scientists don't have any direct evidence that they exist.

That could be because they are extremely difficult to detect, or because they don't exist in our universe.

Professor Stojkovic is optimistic that the evidence will arrive someday.

However, if we want to build a warp drive out of natural wormholes we might encounter a major problem.
