Numerical Relativity Simulations

Numerical relativity simulations provide compelling theoretical evidence that traversable wormholes could exist within general relativity's framework. Supercomputer models solve Einstein's equations to show how exotic matter with negative energy might stabilize these spacetime tunnels against collapse. Recent simulations demonstrate that certain configurations could remain open long enough for information or matter passage before destabilizing. While not proof of natural wormholes, these calculations confirm they're mathematically plausible if exotic materials exist. The simulations also explore how quantum effects near wormhole throats might prevent time paradoxes, advancing wormholes from pure speculation toward testable astrophysical hypotheses worth serious scientific consideration.
