In November of this year, movie theaters around the world will begin showing perhaps the year’s most anticipated film, the science-fiction blockbuster, “Interstellar.” The plot of the film features scientists on Earth devising a plan to send human beings through a wormhole, in a desperate effort to find a new, habitable system. But what is a “wormhole.” Mathematician Stephen J. Crothers tells us all the reasons why the wormhole concept is physically meaningless.
