Any stop point in practical wormholes technology?

I just want to clear up one POI thats been offered here. Someone has claimed that black hole dont exist. They do. There are objects in space that are so heavy that light is sucked into them, hence the name black hole. Just wanted to clear that up.

There is no hope to the governments. Private sector should do something:<br /><br />http://uplink.space.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=businesstech&Number=643790&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=0&fpart=1&vc=1<br /><br />Expect my next news ...<br />

First of all, let me say that this is, indeed, an interesting topic….one that I have pondered over for quite a long time. I am not here to take sides or debate since there is no published evidence to prove or disprove the theory of folding space…I do feel the need to make one statement. I’ve been seeing the word, “impossible†written a lot in these posts. I feel compelled to state that much of what we know/use/do today was once considered impossible. Virtually every single day, “impossibilities†become “possibilities†and/or “realities.†I have provided a few links to supplement this statement. Just because we cannot conceive it today, with our limited knowledge, does not mean it cannot, some day be achieved. It is those who belied the “nay sayers,†those who did not accept such “impossibilities†that are now considered the “pioneers†of their respective fields. I personally believe that with determination, intellectual capacity, hard work and a whole lot of luck, virtually anything is possible. Just my two cents.

The Light of other Days by Clarke and Baxter is a good book on this subject, although it is socially very harsh. My problem with the book itself was that there was no character in the book that I actually liked--which makes a book hard to read. The wormhole discussion, however, whas pretty good.<br /><br />Another book you might try for wormholes and relativity is The Forever War by Joe Haldeman. Joe is a professor at MIT. Although the book is dated, the discussion of relativity/wormholes is very good. And, as an aside, it's a great book to read as far as general enjoyment.

You are correct. Kip would be the first. I tried to show him a picture of the one I saw, but he wouldn't here of it. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font size="3">Macro-sized Wormholes have, can, and will exist.</font></p> </div>
