      Hi, your class love wormholes. Probably not possible due to theory of relativity. do you think they are and why?

      Alessandra,
      Worm holes, theoretically allow you to travel through different dimensions (time/space and so forth) to reach impossibly distant stars/planets/galaxies. If you took a trip using a wormhole, you would be travelling through time anyway, beyond the speed of light (probably!). However, if you were taking this unusual trip, as you may know from Albert Einstein’s work. all sorts of strange things might happen to you: you might find yourself in a totally different time zone, (time travel ?) and a different shape, you might get much, much smaller !
