- These wormholes connect not only two regions of space (hence the name) but also two regions of time as well.
- When I was in high school, I gave a presentation on black holes, wormholes and time travel for my physics class.
- These rifts can only be described as wormholes.
- Now a wormhole is a bit like a black hole only different.
