Astrophysicists suggest that some supermassive black holes may have entered WORMHOLES that could transport spacecraft to distant parts of the universe.
- Highly active galaxies with active galactic nuclei are “candidates” for wormholes
- Scientists believe that these galactic nuclei connect distant points in time and space
- They are “traversable wormholes” instead of a supermassive black hole
- The search for evidence of extreme temperatures could prove its existence
Some supermassive black holes in the center of galaxies may be wormholes that connect two distant parts of the universe, astrophysicists suggest.
In his theory of general relativity, Albert Einstein predicted the existence of wormholes, which connect two points in space or time, but have not yet been discovered.
Now experts at Russia’s Central Astronomical Observatory believe the “black holes” in the center of some very bright galaxies (known as active galactic nuclei or AGNs) could be the entrances to these wormholes.
Although these wormholes are theoretically “traversed,” meaning that spacecraft could travel through them, they are surrounded by intense radiation, which means humans are unlikely to survive the trip, even in the most rugged ships.

Some galaxies have an “active galactic nucleus” in the center: a supermassive black hole as a phenomenon with two jets of matter coming out of the accretion disk dust.
Wormholes and black holes are very similar, as they are both extremely dense and possess extraordinarily strong gravitational pulls for bodies of their size.
The difference is that nothing can come out of a black hole after crossing its “event horizon,” while any body that enters the mouth of a wormhole would theoretically come out of its other “mouth” in another place in the universe.
The researchers reasoned that matter entering one mouth of a wormhole could collide with matter entering the other mouth of the wormhole at the same time.
This collision would cause plasma spheres to expand through the two mouths of the wormhole at the speed of light and at temperatures of about 18 trillion degrees Fahrenheit.
With this heat, the plasma would also produce gamma rays with energies of 68 million electrons, allowing it some NASA observatories – such as the Fermi space telescope – to detect the explosion.

The nearest AGN is in the constellation Centaurus A, which is about 13 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Centaurus (pictured)
The new study, published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, examined the type of energy and radiation produced by AGNs.
The nearest AGN is in the galaxy Centaurus A, which is about 13 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Centaurus.
AGNs are usually surrounded by plasma rings known as accretion disks and can emit powerful rays of radiation from their poles.
The energy rays produced by the accretion disks are not nearly as hot as the rays emitted by the collisions inside the wormholes.
However, the researchers suggest that if they found what looked like an AGN that emitted high-energy spherical gamma rays, it might not be an AGN at all, but the entrance to a wormhole.

The Russian team believes that these AGNs are wormholes to another part of the universe and can be detected by observing extremely hot and intense bursts of energy caused by matter on both sides of the colliding wormhole. inside the throat.
Researchers go further, suggesting that these wormholes are likely to be “traversable,” meaning that spacecraft could theoretically travel through them.
“It should be understood that we know very little about the internal structure of wormholes and, moreover, we don’t even know for sure if they exist,” study author Mikhail Piotrovich told Motherboard.
If humans ever reached these distant galactic nuclei, they would open up a new pathway of potential space flight or even a way to travel through time, he said.
However, they are surrounded by intense radiation and the nearest is 13 million light-years away, so it is unlikely that any human being can use them to travel around the universe soon.
The findings have been published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Society.
