oooooohh, the Wormholes, where warping around regions of the universe
would be possible!!! These things would so cool to have around. But too
bad it is highly unlikely since the least disturbance could make you hit
the singularity. Actually, you could say ahhh depending on the size of
the black hole. Say, the ones formed in the center of the GALAXY!!!! You
can probably last for a couple of hours before the gravitational
differences between your head and the feet becomes too great for your
bones and skins to handle. Hey, is it possible to have more dimensions
then the 4 dimensions we live in?? Well, some have said, these
dimensions are unobservable if they do exist....oh well. BTW can some
one explain space-time in a good example??? I get really confused when
it comes to the defention of this term....*sigh*
