: I watched the movie Contact, and was fascinated by Jodie Foster's travel to Vega through worm hole within a few hours, which appeared to be a fraction of a second of our time to the observers.
: How feasible is it? Is it a completely absurd story ?
I loved that movie for the realism of its first half, down to the CNN animations.
The concept the movie extended was that of the Einstein-Rosen Bridge. The link below talks more about it and includes mention of Contact.
