I would say yes. I would want to, yeah.

There are lots of other different components in venoms. And we don't know going forward if we just neutralize the key components in the venom, what will the other toxins do? And this is why it's very important to do clinical trials.

You're listening to Shortwave from NPR. Space. I love it. And the things inside of it. Us, of course. Stars and galaxies I studied. And I even love the other cool hypothetical stuff that mostly lives in science fiction. Like wormholes. Wormholes are a funky but possible solution to Albert Einstein's famous equations for the theory of general relativity.

These theoretical cosmic portals can shorten a trip from hundreds of light years to minutes. Wormholes have been a mainstay of transportation in movies like Interstellar.

And TV shows like my favorite, Star Trek. The aliens who live in the wormhole, as you call them. Which Ron Campbell says is not far off from how scientists think about these wormholes.

Ron's a theoretical physicist, and he wrote his PhD on funky solutions to Einstein's equations for general relativity, like wormholes. Basically, he did this by studying space-time, the four-dimensional existence we all live in. It includes three dimensions of space and one dimension of time moving forward as that fourth dimension.

And general relativity talks about how space-time itself has a shape to it. a shape that is distorted by all the wonders inside of it. All the beautiful stars, planets, galaxies, black holes. Their distortion of space-time is gravity. And if you push that gravity to its extreme, you get black holes. And some physicists theorize that white holes could also exist.
