A new quantum experiment allows scientists to study the dynamics of wormholes, theoretical space-time entities that first A emerged from general relativity. Rather than creating an actual wormhole, a rip in time and space that’s theorised to form a bridge between one distant region of space and another, the team built a wormhole model to run on a quantum processor. This allowed them to investigate the physics of wormholes and their potential connection to so-called ‘quantum gravity.’
