"Intersecting Realms: The Symbiotic Relationship Between Art and Science"
Physicist Kip Thorne and astronomer Carl Sagan collaborated to explore the concept of traversable wormholes for Sagan's novel Contact. Thorne's research led to the discovery of a theoretical solution involving enormous amounts of matter and exotic matter with negative mass. While constructing such wormholes remains beyond current capabilities, their work has inspired further exploration in physics and science fiction, including the portrayal of traversable wormholes in the movie Interstellar.
