The theory of wormholes goes back to 1916, shortly after Einstein published his general theory, when Ludwig Flamm, a Viennese physicist known, was set in the simplest way possible and theoretical black hole - black hole Schwarzschild - and discovered that Einstein's equations allow a second solution, now known as a white hole, which is connected to the input of the black hole through a pipe the spacetime. The "entry" of the black hole and "exit" white hole could be in different parts of the universe or in different universes. In 1935, Einstein and Nathan Rosen further explored the theory of connections intra-or inter-universe in a presentation (1) whose purpose was to explain fundamental particles such as electrons, in terms of space-time tunnels by lines of electric force. This led to the formal name Einstein-Rosen bridge which later the physicist John Wheeler would refer to as "wormhole" (he also coined the term "black hole" and "quantum foam").
