Can you please elaborate on that a bit more? That's the part I don't understand. Why would you observe synchronized clocks when looking through the wormhole?
- avmich 6y agoSpace in the wormhole is regular space. So we have regular properties of space and time - and if A and B are separated by a short distance, and they don't have accelerated motion against each other, the clocks have no reason to deviate. > Why would you observe synchronized clocks when looking through the wormhole? I think it's the same question as why we observe diverging clocks when looking via the "regular" space. Einstein provided answers to that - in "regular" space (that is, outside the wormhole - the space in wormhole is also space, with properties of space, including relativistic ones) we have accelerated motion, which is absolute and slows down clock in B, but not in A. In "wormhole space" we don't have that, so there is no reason to have, or observe, that difference. I think, other than entrance to the wormhole, you can't really say which of paths is "regular space" - the long one or through the wormhole, as you may argue that in fact A and B are close by, but they also have a wormhole with really long path - and the rest of the Universe - inside.
