Wormholes and Janus Points in new scientific paper

(speaks in Nova Odyssey):

There is great satisfaction in seeing a scientific paper propose a new astrophysics theory that you in your little armchair mused on because you are yourself, out-of-this-world.

In my literary work, I treat wormholes more as jumps in time than spacetime highways, and I treat the janus point as a serious interest (enough to name my imprint after it with its reminder to Watch out for wormholes).

Read this paper (in an alien language to most of us) or probably, listen to Anton’s digestible break down of the new paper out that describes wormholes more as time mirrors, where the universe is as wormhole, its meeting center where time banged out in two directions: the janus point. (disclaimer: quote actual scientists for an accurate explanation, this is what filters down to sci-fi me)
