My question was meant to be about why the article also states that ships which are too large to pass through "come into contact with the walls of the Throat". Does that part of the article need to be edited out? The reason I was asking about wormholes being portrayed as tunnels is because I had thought it looked more like that image you sent, and I guess I was correct about that. Smile Thanks for clarifying!

No, the article doesn't need any changing at all. I'm afraid you're misinterpreting things here.

Wormholes - including the Throat - are spherical objects, as explained in my earlier post. The Throat is not a tube or tunnel it is (at least to our 3d existence), a spherical 'shell' that seems to shrink in from all directions at once and then expand away again as one travels thru the wormhole.

Simulations of apparent visual effects - and for an older and different type of wormhole - are interesting, but are not really relevant to the actual writings and math of the person who 'designed' OA's wormholes - a practicing Physics Phd. So we'll be retaining his description as currently written.

Hope this helps,
