@talyvale Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
One other thing I didn't mention because it's a lot to take in.
Time dilation is a result of m=e/c2
What is happening is that when you move, you are trading momentum through time for momentum through space. The faster you move through space the slower you move through time and vice versa.
Momentum is just kinetic energy meaning that this is the same inertia effect that you feel when traveling at a high rate of speed in a car.
This is also why you can't break the speed of light.
Because you as you approach the speed of light, the amount of total energy in the system means that the ratio of e/c2 begins to approach 1:1 meaning that the total mass also increases towards the planck energy and this would of course be reflected as an increase in the total gravitational field strength of the system.
In effect, any object with rest mass that got close enough to the speed of light would collapse into a blackhole.
Light is composed of photons which are really just discretized packets of EM field radiation, which is purely kinetic energy. However if you could trap enough light you would be able to collapse it into a blackhole.
Taking particles which are entangled and trapping enough partners from each pair in order to trigger collapse into two black holes, should create a stable worm hole. But as soon as you released the trap you would have the mouths of each side take off in opposite directions at the speed of light. Likely doing serious damage to the lab that created it. Not to mention the solar system the lab was sitting in.
This is one proposed design for a hypercomputer (a type of computer predicted to be beyond quantum computing, since it would naturally compute inside of a closed time like curve, especially if you could bring the mouths back together and manage to counter their mutual gravitation).
I should mention the above information doesn't quite sit right with me. I'm parroting something I read and found fascinating. The source if I recall correctly was based on work by Leonard Susskind, but I'm having difficulty finding it on Arxiv now.
Will upvote anyone that finds it. It was entitled something like "Wormhole Hypercomputing".
@lemouth Ok this is GREAT! And it's by Susskind. But this is not the one I'm talking about. However it is much newer so I'm going to check this out.
The one I was talking about was circa 2010 to 2012.
He and someone else were discussing the possibility of constructing an ARNN from a wormhole because a paper circa 1997 was discussing that one could compute the whole universe with a hypercomputer capable of computing reals.
The underlaying message was that a classical computer which had a receiver on one side and transmitter on the other, could calculate reals to arbitrary precision as long as the wormhole remained open with one mouth in the past and one in the future. Simply by sending the result of each computation to itself in the past.
Although with his latest paper it looks like Susskind has bought into "the whole multiverse is made of wormholes" camp. So I dunno. I'm skeptical.
I do recall the paper mentioning intentional blackhole collapse via huge EM fields, then when the fields were released. The two mouths taking off at light speed in opposite directions and "spelling possible trouble for the lab, and certain doom for the solar system it was situated in".

Is this the paper you mention: https://arxiv.org/abs/1402.5674. I unfortunately haven't read it.
