This is pure junk that has hindered the development of interpretation of observational astronomy for centuries,it may entertain a few mathematicians who live in their imaginations but this is in no way the result of higher reasoning but the end of it.A historical contemporary of the rise of the vicious strain of empiricism noted it -
"These are the imaginings of incomplete- notions-philosophers who make space an absolute reality. Such notions are apt to be fudged up by devotees of pure mathematics, whose whole subject- matter is the playthings of imagination, but they are destroyed by higher reasoning" Leibniz
The higher reasoning of which Leibniz spoke does not run out of questions nor answers,once an individual finds a growing satisfaction in investigating the cause and effects between planetary dynamics and terrestrial effects,the empirical script falls by the wayside and the genuine astronomers who have had their works temporarily obscured by mathematical voodoowill reappear once more in a world that badly needs it.

There are some intriguing and attractive ideas in this article:

It begins with an explanation of what a wormhole *is* but wormholes are
not known to exist. Then it builds on that untested (and untestable)
conjecture. It's a bit reminiscent of string "theory." Turns out if you
know some math you can pick one of the 10E500 string theories and run
with it and no one can prove you right or wrong. Physicists so want
there to be a theory of quantum gravity, but they haven't yet found a
hint that there is such a theory outside of their own desires.
No, I'm not qualified to do this research myself. But I am sufficiently
science-savvy to recognize evidence when I see it, and to remain
skeptical when I don't see it.
