Facts

nobody likes Florida. Even Florida doesn't like Florida

Why? Because it is one of the tip of the famed (or is it?) Bermuda Triangle?

It is a long standing stereotype that Oklahoma wants to be like Texas, but fails in every single way. 
Us city-folk also call them rednecks. Something Gerd von Rundstedt would probably be deeply offended by.

Los Angeles Vacation:
Go to L.A.
realize it sucks
go home and brag about your awesome vacation in L.A.

East
Go To New York.
Spend an entire day looking for Banksys before realizing they were all buffed within a year. 
Realize the best part was the World Trade Center, and the quiet respect you have for the people who died.
realize only good cities were Philly and Boston

North
drive through the middle of nowhere. 
Have fun in Seattle.

West
Arizona and New Mexico are beautiful states (even though Arizoney is an oven)
Don't go to Frisco.
See lots of holes in to ground a list of these holes:
Grand Canyon
Death Valley
Las Vegas

PEI's Potato Museum is da best.

I'm something of a "liberal folk" myself lol.
Exactly why I said stereotype. Texas has changed over the past few years. The only cities I know that resemble the "old" Texas are Lubbock and Amarillo, ironically right next to Oklahoma lol.

Wormhole

In physics, a wormhole, also known as an Einstein-Rosen bridge, is a hypothetical topological feature of a spacetime, described in the equations of general relativity, which essentially consists of a shortcut through space and time. . A wormhole has at least two ends connected to a single throat, through which matter could travel. To date, no evidence has been found that known space-time contains structures of this type, so it is currently only a theoretical possibility in science. When a red supergiant star explodes, it spews matter out, becoming smaller in size and becoming a neutron star. But it can also happen that it compresses so much that it absorbs its own energy inside it and disappears, leaving a black hole in the place it occupied. This hole would have such a great gravity that not even electromagnetic radiation could escape from its interior. It would be surrounded by a spherical boundary, called the event horizon. The light would pass through this border to enter, but could not exit, so the hole seen from great distances would have to be completely black (although Stephen Hawking postulated that certain quantum effects would generate the so-called Hawking radiation). Inside the hole, astrophysicists speculate that a kind of bottomless cone forms. In 1994, the Hubble space telescope detected the presence of a very dense one in the center of the elliptical galaxy M87, since the high acceleration of gases in that region indicates that there must be an object 3.5 billion times more massive than the Sun. , this hole will end up absorbing the entire galaxy.

The first scientist to warn of the existence of wormholes was the Austrian Ludwig Flamm, in 1916. In this sense, the wormhole hypothesis is an update of the nineteenth-century theory of a fourth spatial dimension that assumed, for example, given a toroidal body in which the three commonly perceptible spatial dimensions could be found, a fourth spatial dimension that shortened distances and thus travel times. This initial notion was raised in a more scientific way in 1921 by the German mathematician Hermann Weyl, however, he did not use the term "wormhole" (he spoke of "one-dimensional tubes"), when he related his analysis of mass in terms of the energy of an electromagnetic field [2] with Albert Einstein's theory of relativity published in 1916. At present, string theory admits the existence of more than three spatial dimensions (see hyperspace), but those extra dimensions would be compacted at subatomic scales (according to Kaluza-Klein theory), so it seems very difficult (if not impossible) take advantage of them to undertake journeys in space and time.

Wormhole types edit Intrauniverse wormholes connect one position in a universe with another position in the same universe at a different time. A wormhole should be able to connect distant locations in the universe by space-time folds, so that it would allow travel between them in less time than it would take to travel through normal space. Interuniverse wormholes associate one universe with a different one and are called "Schwarzschild wormholes." This allows one to speculate on whether such wormholes could be used to travel from one parallel universe to another. Another application of a wormhole could be time travel. In that case, it would be a shortcut to move from one space-time point to another. In string theory, a wormhole is seen as the connection between two D-branes, where the mouths are associated with the branes and connected by a flow tube. Wormholes are believed to be a part of the quantum or space-time foam. Other classification: Euclidean wormholes, studied in particle physics. Lorentz wormholes, mainly studied in general relativity and semi-classical gravity. Among these are traversable wormholes, a special type of Lorentz wormhole that would allow a human being to travel from one side of the hole to the other. Different types of wormholes have been theorized so far, mainly as mathematical solutions to the question. Essentially, these types of wormholes are: The Schwarzschild wormhole supposedly formed by a Schwarzschild black hole, which is considered impassable. The wormhole supposedly formed by a Reissner-Nordstrøm or Kerr-Newman black hole, which would be passable, but in only one direction, and which could contain a Schwarzschild wormhole. The Lorentz wormhole, which has negative mass and is considered passable in both directions (past and future).


Wormholes and time travel

In theory, a wormhole could allow time travel through space-time. This could be done by accelerating the end of a wormhole at a relatively high speed relative to its other end. Relativistic time dilation would result in an accelerated wormhole mouth aging more slowly than the stationary mouth, seen by an outside observer, similar to what is observed in the twin paradox. However, time passes differently through the wormhole from the outside, so the synchronized clocks in each mouth will remain in sync for someone traveling through the wormhole, no matter how much the mouths move. This means that anything that enters through the accelerated mouth of the wormhole could exit through the stationary mouth at a point in time prior to its entry if the time dilation has been sufficient.

For example, suppose that two clocks in both mouths show the year 2000 before accelerating one of the mouths and, after accelerating one of the mouths to speeds close to that of light, we put both mouths together when the clock in the accelerated mouth shows the year 2017 and in the stationary mouth marks the year 2013. In this way, a traveler who enters through the accelerated mouth at this moment would exit through the stationary mouth when his watch also marked the year 2013, in the same region of space but four years in the past. Such a wormhole configuration would allow a particle on the universe line of space-time to form a closed space-time circuit, known as a closed time-type curve. The course through a wormhole through a closed time-type curve causes a wormhole to have temporary hole characteristics.

It is considered that it is practically impossible to turn a wormhole into a "time machine" in this way. Some analyzes using semi-classical approximations that incorporate quantum effects in general relativity indicate that a feedback of virtual particles would circulate through the wormhole with an ever increasing intensity, destroying it before any information could pass through it, according to what the chronological protection conjecture. This has been questioned, suggesting that the radiation would scatter after traveling through the wormhole, thus preventing its infinite accumulation. Kip S. Thorne discusses this in his book Black Holes and Time Warps. [10] The so-called Roman Ring, a configuration made up of more than one wormhole, has also been described. This ring seems to allow a closed timeline with stable wormholes when analyzed under the prism of semi-classical gravity, but without a complete theory of quantum gravity it is not yet possible to know if said semi-classical approximation is applicable in this case.

Travel at speeds greater than the speed of light

Special relativity only has local application. Wormholes - if indeed they existed - would theoretically allow superluminal travel (faster than light) ensuring that the speed of light is not exceeded locally at any time. When traveling through a wormhole, the speeds are subluminal (below the speed of light). If two points are connected by a wormhole, the time it takes to pass through it would be less than the time it takes for a ray of light to travel outside the wormhole. However, a ray of light traveling through the wormhole would always reach the traveler. By way of analogy, going around a mountain from the side to the opposite side at maximum speed may take longer than crossing under the mountain through a tunnel at a slower speed, since the route is shorter. Subatomically the existence of a quantum foam or a space-time foam is hypothesized, advancing with the conjecture, the possibility of the existence of wormholes in it is hypothesized, although if these existed they would be highly unstable and could only be stabilized by inverting huge amounts of energy (for example with gigantic particle accelerators that can create a quark-gluon plasma).

Interuniversal travel

One possible resolution of the paradoxes resulting from time travel through wormholes is based on the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. In 1991, David Deutsch showed that quantum theory is fully coherent (in the sense that the so-called density matrix can be free of discontinuities) in time periods with closed time curves. [11] However, later it was demonstrated that such a closed time curve model may have internal inconsistencies, as it will lead to strange phenomena such as the distinction of non-orthogonal quantum states and the distinction of the proper and inappropriate mixture. [12] [13] Consequently, it is avoids the destructive positive feedback loop of virtual particles circulating through a wormhole time machine, a result indicated by semi-classical calculations. A particle that returns from the future does not return to its original universe but to a parallel universe. This suggests that a wormhole time machine with an extremely short time jump is a theoretical bridge between contemporary parallel universes. [14] Because a wormhole time machine introduces a type of non-linearity in quantum theory, this type of communication between parallel universes is consistent with Joseph Polchinski's proposal for an Everett telephone [15] (named after Hugh Everett) in Steven Weinberg's formulation of nonlinear quantum mechanics. [16] The possibility of communication between parallel universes has been called interuniverse travel. [17]
