‘If this negative mass/energy matter exists, then creating both a supermassive black hole and the negative mass/energy counterpart to it, while then connecting them, should allow for a traversable wormhole,’ Siegel writes. Certain conditions exist that would allow for the construction of elaborate wormholes, the physicist says. It takes an enormous amount of matter or energy to create such distortions, but theoretically, distortions are possible. The problem with using wormholes to travel in space or time is that they are inherently unstable. When a particle enters a wormhole, it also creates fluctuations that cause the structure to collapse in on it.
