Scientists Use Novel Materials That Mimic Wormholes and Multiple Realities to “Transcend the Limitations of Physical Dimensions” (thedebrief.org)

Researchers have used nonlocal artificial materials to mimic the effects of wormholes and multiple realities. When light enters one boundary in the artificial material, it experiences an entirely different set of optical effects compared with light entering from another boundary. Surprisingly, each of these optical experiences can occur without any interference between them.

The researchers liken this effect to C.S. Lewis’s classic, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, where different “doors” could lead to entirely separate worlds located in a single place.

I have called out numerous articles for being ai written myself.

This one however reads very human and does not have the obvious tells of ai.

It also uses and describes coherent pictures from the actual research.

The “wormhole, multiple realities” thing is hyperbolic, the researchers even directly state that that is not really what is going on but the analogy might help people grasp what is actually going on.

I have been interested into “nano composite/meta materials”for a while, personally labeling it the most important technological breakthrough to date.

What this research has found was theoretically expected, it significantly lifts me up to read we managed to demonstrate it in our lifetime.
