Though black holes are not seen directly, astronomers have identified many objects that appear to be black holes based on observations of how matter swirls around them.But physicists Thibault Damour of the Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques in Bures-sur-Yvette, France, and Sergey Solodukhin of International University Bremen in Germany now say that these objects could be structures called wormholes instead.
Wormholes are warps in the fabric of space-time that connect one place to another. If you imagine the universe as a two-dimensional sheet, you can picture a wormhole as a "throat" connecting our sheet to another one. In this scenario, the other sheet could be a universe of its own, with its own stars, galaxies and planets.
Damn science is getting pretty damn cool lately! First we found a planet with earth like atmosphere, then we discovered kryptonite, and now this!
