Question

What is the differences between black holes and wormholes?

Answer 1

Black holes are real astronomical objects: extremely dense and massive objects whose gravitational force is so strong that their escape velocity is greater than the speed of light, so that light cannot escape from them. Worm holes are hypothetical objects invented by science fiction writers to get around the limitations of light speed for space travel. They have never been observed to exist in the real universe.

Answer 2

Black holes are immensely dense objects whose gravitational effects are so great that nothing can escape once they get within a certain distance of its center... even light itself cannot escape.

Wormholes are theoretical tunnels in the space-time fabric which would allow for travel from point A to point B more directly than even a straight line, thus giving the appearance of travelling faster than the speed of light.

Black holes are fairly well understood and detected physically.  Wormholes have never been physically observed.

Answer 3

A black hole is a star collapsed upon itself, that pretty much sucks everything in with its gravitational pull.

A Wormhole i think in theory its a hole with a tubular shape that can move something between great distances at great speeds.

Answer 4

a black hole swallows all matter a wormhole is a jump through trememdous distance in no time at all.
