Wired calls him "The Linus Torvalds of Antigravity", but NASA still won't return his calls. Since the birth of American Antigravity in 2002, Tim has been featured on a multitude of television networks, such as Nippon TV and the BBC, as well as extensively covered in print by sources as diverse as Wired Magazine and Jane's Defense Weekly.
Wormholes offer an opportunity to connect distant points in space, bypassing the need for FTL propulsion. Assuming that anticipated advances in science give us the ability to generate and control wormholes, this article explores the likely path of development for this speculative technology, presenting avenues for major advances from communications to even interstellar colonization...
Arthur C. Clarke addressed this topic in his science-fiction classic, "The Light of Other Days". Like Clarke, I imagine that this technology would start small, mostly due to the power-limitations involved with stabilizing a quantum-wormhole.
The initial application would most likely be point-to-point communications, but as technology progresses over time, I imagine that it might eventually grow together with Nanotechnology to allow us to colonize other worlds by sending Nanobots with pre-programmed construction plans through a hole in space-time only a few atom's-width across.

Why didn't I find this web site before?, it's truly wondrous, indeed!!!.
Keep up the great work!. Also best wishes for 2007. ALBERTO IN AUSTRALIA

Tim,
I liked the article and saved a copy to my file. It made me immediately think of the plasma vortex device. I thought that if the vortex chamber solenoid winding was terminated just before the suction head of the vortex into a caduceus coil that this might be enough with a bit of work to create a wormhole at the anode end of the vortex. I will have to give this a try some time soon.

Dear Sir,
I AGREE THAT WORMHOLES EXIST., and they are the highways to stars and other galaxies, ie: the path to universes.
I would like to add :
1- imagine 5 or 6 atoms in a cube = 5 0r 6 stars in any locality.
I mean: there are not 4 forces, there is only one: it is the electromagnetic gravity.
2- assume we put 5 or 6 tennis balls in a box...all touching each other: THE EMPTY SPACES ARE THE WORMHOLES, which are subject to VECTOR GEOMETRY in 3 dimensions, Cartesian.Mawwell's ETHER ( electric and magnetic fluxes together) governs the wormholes and the Universe.
3- I think, stars repel each other, depending on their amount of + charge and direction of rotation, and have linear velocities within the galactic arm. A VERY VERY COMPLEX AND VECTORIAL ISSUE.....but it is not unsolvable.
