Yes a wormhole has that energy, a black hole alone can't do it, you need to get a black hole and a white hole and splice them together to create a wormhole.


Yes wormholes can be made stable, normally they would close up behind you but they could be kept open.


Finally, to know where you come out would be by placing one end of the wormhole where you want it when you splice the two together. Or by using absolute galilean event co-ordinates when creating the wormhole remotely from say earth.

Again, take what zevon says with a large pinch of salt (a quantity roughly equal to the amount of salt laid down on the M6 on a frosty night).

Wormholes are just a result of some solutions to the equations of general relativity. GR is most definitely not the full story though, and its thoughts on wormholes are likely to be at least partially incorrect.

Fool! A quip about more salt than found on popeye's chips would wound me more, I care not for the M6 but for Popeye I kneel.


Anyway wormholes could definitely join two space-time co-ordinates and black holes could be artificially formed.


The real problems lie in the white hole and joining the two, but the question assumed a worm hole could be made. The Galilean event co-ordinbates are the hardest part as they need to be taken from the origin of the universe.


Final bonus question - where does my name take its inspiration from?

"Anyway wormholes could definitely join two space-time co-ordinates and black holes could be artificially formed."

This is completely untrue. Certain theories suggest this, but you can most definitely not say anything definite about it.

Certain theories prove this, so what? what is much more important is that no theories disprove this and also black holes can be artificially formed, not just in theory but in practice, even though no one has. In a way that you could create a truly disgusting sandwich or slow computer, you wouldn't becuase there is no use and it may even be potentially dangerous, but you could in practice and in theory.


Science runs on theories, nothing is actually definite in science. Newton's laws of motion are still just theories that explain the available evidence, they are not truly definite. Something is correct until it is disproved, only one piece of evidence is needed to disprove or change a theory but everything has to agree.
