Wormholes are hypothetical tunnels in spacetime that allow for faster-than-light travel. While wormhole is the most commonly used term, there are other ways to refer to these theoretical phenomena. Some synonyms for wormholes include Einstein-Rosen bridges, black hole portals, and space-time tunnels. These terms all refer to the same idea of a shortcut through the fabric of spacetime, allowing for travel between two distant points. These alternative names for wormholes illustrate the various ways physicists and science fiction authors have imagined the phenomena and offer different ways to conceptualize the concept in the human mind. Regardless of the term used, wormholes remain an exciting and intriguing area of study in the realm of theoretical physics.
