Susskind's ER=EPR posits that entanglement is actually a form of proto-wormhole, and you could build a bridge through spacetime with two entangled black holes..

Susskind's ER=EPR posits that entanglement is actually a form of proto-wormhole, and you could build a bridge through spacetime with two entangled black holes... it works pretty well without rewriting physics. though you couldnt send information from one side out the other. Einstein-Rosen bridge
- ars 10y agoA wormhole with the same "trick" that entanglement does, where you can't actually send information/energy through it, would indeed not violate any laws. It would also be useless. But that's not what people mean when they say wormhole.
- platz 10y agoTo be more clear, the ER bridge would actually allow people on different ends to jump in and meet in the 'middle', they just couldnt then go back out (going from one side out the other). This was the closest thing to a wormhole i can think of (given the ER=RPR conjecture is true)
