'US expert Dr Lawrence Krauss, from Case Western Reserve health center in Cleveland, Ohio, points out that the idea rests on untested assumptions. He told New rocketeer magazine: "It is an interesting attempt to indeed think of what a real signature for a wormhole would be, but it is more hypothetical than observational.
