- The vacuum of space may be stitched together by the threads of quantum entanglement itself.
- Quantum entanglement connecting two particles is just like a wormhole going from one to the other.
- If mathematically the threads of quantum entanglement are cut, space falls apart, discretizes into little tiny pieces, and disappears.

I've not been the same since we had lunch months ago and you explained to me that there are ideas percolating that the fabric of space-time might be woven by wormholes that connect the virtual particle pairs that come in and out of existence and that if they're connected by wormholes rather than just some field then the wormhole is an actual
structural texture of the universe. >> Yeah, in fact the other way I'm sorry. First of all I need some weed. To even deal with this. >> What compels you to say wormhole rather than just a field?
>> Well, because it really comes from the idea of quantum entanglement. What we find is that entanglement which normally we think of as particle pairs, but now we're finding that the vacuum of space may be stitched together by the threads of quantum entanglement itself. And then other work shows us that quantum entanglement connecting two particles is just like a wormhole.
>> Right. >> Going from one to the other. >> Because what happens in one happens to the other instantly. >> Yes. >> And that means they're touching each other in that instant. >> weird way. >> So it's like a little quantum net holding the whole universe together. >> right. We find mathematically if we cut the threads of quantum entanglement which we can do mathematically space falls apart. It discretizes into little tiny pieces and then just disappears. >> I got to go.
