Black Holes and Worm Holes

February 4, 201213 yr

yeah, im fascinated by the possibilities of there being black holes and worm holes up there somewhere and im intrueged by what would happen if something went into one :L

i attended a 'science live' day in birmingham and we spoke about it quite a bit there. but could anyone go into more detail and explain to me more about black holes and worm holes?

Worm holes are theoretical constructs from general relativity - they may or may not exist.

Black holes are high concentrations of matter, where the escape velocity exceeds the speed of light.
