Time Travel with Wormholes Explained
Channel: The ScienceVerse
Date: 2020-05-24

Quick correction: at the end where it talks about having a wormhole mouth open here on Earth and that starship traveling really fast and that can be used to “time travel” into the past. This was a gross oversimplification. Essentially the spaceship traveling at light speed would experience very slowly diluted time/0 time flow to an outside observer. However for the individuals in the light speed ship it would in theory appear they arrive at their destination just as they left.

In this video we take a look at the basics of wormholes and time travel including concepts such as Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and Time Dilation due to differences in velocity and/ or gravity that are experienced by 2 different objects.
