Assignment 3

For this assignment I decided to create a wormhole generator.
A wormhole, also known as an Einstein-Rosen bridge, is a hypothetical feature of space-time that is essentially a "shortcut" from one point of the universe to another.
The machine I have created produces these wormholes using enormous amounts of energy generated by 144 of the world’s strongest lasers. The energy created forms a magnetic field which pulls the fabric of space together and allows one of these passages to be completed.
The model displayed is a smaller version of the wormhole generator. This design allows for only a one-man spacecraft to enter through the opening. Other sizes are available.
This device will be placed on the moon, as it has no atmosphere that will interfere with the technology.      
Like many of NASA’s space crafts the wormhole generator is made of carbon fibre, with an exterior of absorption tiles. These tiles are able to withstand space weather and temperatures as high as 1650°C while maintaining the structure at no more than 177°C.
The interior of the “flex legs” on the wormhole generator are made of an alloy of titanium, aluminium and vanadium. This is for strength and stability on the moon’s surface.
