WORMHOLES


“Look fellas,” she said, “I’m no expert in General Relativity. But
didn’t we see black holes? Didn’t we fall into them? Didn’t we emerge
out of them? Isn’t a gram of observation worth a ton of theory?”

“I know, I know,” Vagay said in mild agony. “It has to be something
else. Our understanding of physics can’t be that far off. Can it?”

He addressed this last question, a little plaintively, to Eda, who only
replied, “A naturally occurring black hole can’t be a tunnel; they have
impassable singularities at their centers.”
