What advanced concept of space did Wheeler help hypothesize?
Quantum entanglement
Higgs field
Wormhole
Dark energy
Answer
Wormholes are hypothetical tunnels or shortcuts that connect two distant points in spacetime. Proposed by physicists John Wheeler and Charles Misner in the 1950s, these intriguing phenomena are predicted by Theory of general relativity. Wormholes could potentially enable faster-than-light travel or interstellar journeys, but their existence remains purely theoretical and has not been experimentally confirmed.
