A SHORTCUT TO SPACE TRAVEL: THE SPACE TUNNEL

Abstract The causes of gravitational phenomena in the universe have always been an object of interest. In the end, it became clear that the reasons for the formation of the gravitational field cannot be fully explained by 3-dimensional space. As A. Einstein rightly noted, the properties of the gravitational field should be characterized by 4-dimensional space. A. Einstein combined this idea, that is, the results about the gravitational field, in his general theory of relativity. In modern science, the events occurring in the Universe are explained on the basis of the solutions obtained from A. Einstein's theory of relativity. In addition, an issue arising from the solutions of the theory of relativity is the existence of a space tunnel. A space tunnel is one of the shortest ways to travel through the Universe. In the presented work, modern approaches to the existence of the space tunnel were considered. At the same time, new ideas about the possibility of creating a space tunnel with our modern technological capabilities were mentioned. In the end, theoretical approaches to effectively use the positive results of the experience were touched upon.
