Wormholes

Wormholes, what are they? When you hear such a word, you see a worm creating a hole in an apple. Well today’s blog is different. Wormholes are hypothetical portals linking two points in space time. Won’t it be so exciting to see one and go through one? Yes, it would. Lets explore them. Currently they only exist on paper. But for the future, we have white listed three types. In the end I will also explain about a wormhole designed by me. The three types are – 1.        Einstein – Rosen bridges – Einstein Rosen Bridges are basically portals. It is believed that these types of wormholes were basically black holes opening into white holes . Oh sorry, we have not discussed white holes. A white hole is another powerful object in our universe which does the opposite of a black hole. Instead of eating stuff, it spews energy. Now back to topic, these wormholes open into another planet, Galaxy or even a Universe. Now that is a flaw. Trying to go through one would take many years and we woul

Black Holes. From Life to Death

Image
In the previous articles we have discussed about, interstellar travel, Dyson spheres and the Kardashev scale. Have you ever imagined what black holes are? Black Holes are basically super gravity vortexes formed after the death of a big star at least 8 times the mass of the Sun. Black holes are the most powerful objects in the whole universe. They have a ground breaking gravity of the speed of light. They can devour literally anything. A black hole is made up of 2 parts. The event horizon and the singularity. The event horizon is the part of the black hole which devours everything. The singularity is where all the devoured material goes to. The black hole has an interesting gravity. The gravity it applies on the side of the object facing it is a million times the gravity applied on the opposite side. The largest black hole in the universe is TON – 618. It has a diameter of 390 Billion Kilometres which is 1/3 rd of a light year. Black holes are so strong that they don’t even let light e

Stellar Engines

One fine night you notice something strange. You see a tiny red spot in the sky while stargazing using your Celestron 660 Power Vision telescope. You know how red stars look like, but this looks different. It looks very suspicious and you believe that aliens have finally arrived. You submit the picture to the NASA Astronomy Department. They immediately use the small but efficient telescopes in their department. It looks very strange and they are unable to identify it. They immediately alert the Mauna Kea Observatories in Hawaii. The observatories are able to pin point the location for this strange object. They send the location to the Hubble Space Telescope, the most powerful telescope deployed in our solar system. The location is right on Gacrux (which is a red giant star). After Hubble’s reports we received bad news. Ap

How to Start an Inter-Universal Civilization Part – 2

  How to Start an Inter-Universal Civilization Part – 2 Last article we discussed that you are a man who has been granted immortal life until we establish full control over the multi-verse. We must also reach stage 5 on the Kardashev Scale. Since this is a huge task, James has been given immortality. The solar mission is still going on and we are collecting every scrap of resource to make the Dyson Sphere. From Mercury we found a very strong metal and named it Kalnet. Kalnet is super strong and durable. But Kalnet is very rare so we won't be able to do a lot with it. Now we must choose another alternative. We have strip-mined Venus, Mercury, Mars and the Moon, this won't cut it. Since there are no more rocky planets left in the Solar system, we can start mining asteroids. Asteroids are small celestial bodies(not very small) which are usually found in the Asteroid Belt and the Kuiper Belt. I once saw a Kurzgesagt video about mining asteroids.  An idea to mine asteroids is to
