    Do you think they exist?

    Maybe, it would be pretty cool if they did.

    Didn't Einstein try to purposely mess up his theory a little to make it so wormholes couldnt exist.

    Who knows, who cares really we are far from ever being able to understand/use them.

    It's still cool to think about.

    But perhaps far to advanced for are comprehension.

    We discovered about our origins from looking at things millions of years old. We built a rocket that could take men to the moon and back without the use of a calculator. We even discovered things that are smaller than anything we see, and found out that they are the building blocks of everything and what they look like. I'm pretty sure we can comprehend wormholes.

    Yes but if we can prove they exist, then the idea that aliens could have visited this planet has a lot more merit.

    How? That implies there's a wormhole nearby. And deemed safe by aliens. If there were spacefaring aliens out there, they'd probably have more sense than to launch themselves into a wormhole.

    Let's say that this civilization has been around for a billion years before we have. Don't you think by then, if wormholes existed and they knew about them, they would be able to use them, and probably even be able to create them?

    I'd like to think they do, but if they do, then why have we not discovered any signs of exit points?

    If they do, they do, if they don't they don't. We're probably not going to know for quite a while, and even when we do it'll be quite a while until we can do anything with them.

    I've been trying to catch up on ancient aliens, reading TIME magazine, and been reading into Carl Sagan and watching some videos about him. I am like addicted to astronomy and the universe right now.

    I think the most amazing part about physics, and science in general, is how much we don't know. Since we live in the future, we like to think that we've figured everything out sometimes, but that's only because we've been doing it faster lately. The fact is that in a hundred years, assuming we haven't been destroyed by a bomb or an asteroid, or a calendar, science will have advanced ten times as much as the past hundred years. At least that is what all my science teachers have been saying. We are living in such an important part of history and we have no idea what it is yet. Being alive in this time period is pretty exciting.

    In 100 years we should be at a type 1 civilization. This is pretty much the most important generation of man kind. Transitioning from type 0 to type 1 is the most critical and dangerous transition for a civilization.
