Wheeler, John Archibald

John Archibald Wheeler was a renowned American physicist who contributed significantly to understanding black holes, nuclear physics, and quantum mechanics. He coined the terms "black hole" and "wormhole," shaping our conceptual view of the universe’s most extreme objects and pathways. Wheeler emphasized the fundamental role of information in physics, suggesting that physical reality is deeply connected to how information is processed. His work helped bridge ideas between gravity and quantum theory, influencing modern theories about the universe’s structure. Wheeler’s insights have prompted ongoing research into space, matter, and the nature of reality itself.
