The Einstein-Rosen Bridge

The Einstein-Rosen Bridge, often called a "wormhole," is a theoretical concept in physics that describes a hypothetical tunnel-like connection between two separate points in space and time. Proposed by Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen in 1935, this idea suggests that such bridges could allow for shortcuts between distant parts of the universe or even different universes. While fascinating, wormholes remain purely theoretical and have not been observed. They challenge our understanding of the universe, space, and time, raising questions about the nature of reality and the possibility of faster-than-light travel.
