Sorry things have been a bit quiet around here, I've been rather tied-up with work lately. Kay, it would make a good plot for an episode of Doctor Who but otherwise quite impossible.

It is fantastic, where did you get it ? Wolfie,

And that hole would take a billion years to travel from one end to the next, if travelling at the speed of light. Now reading up on the picard topology :) Amazing.

The article mentioned that if you got far enough down the narrow end, you'd eventually be able to see the back of your own head. So, I wonder what would happen if, assuming we find a way to get there, CERN built a particle accelerator close to the narrow end with an exit point aimed directly down the center of the narrow end, then fired out a few dozen antineutrons? Would the particles keep going, continuously gaining acceleration until they collide with themselves? If not, then what would happen? If so, then what would happen next?

The universe I mean. I suspect we'll find these huge voids are fairly regular features. I'm wondering how the Raelians take this. They think our universe is an atom in a person in another universe.
