In [[wikipedia:physics|physics]], a '''worm hole''' or '''time slip''' is a hypothetical feature of space time that is basically a shortcut through space and time (although a time slip is just a shortcut through time that may take one backwards or forwards). Worm holes are utilized for transportation because of their unique ability to take a person anywhere in the universe (and anywhere in time) faster than the speed of light. Worm holes are a feature of both the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series and the [[Earth|real world]].

==History==
Some examples of worm holes in use are in ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'' where worm holes were used to take [[Donkey Kong]] to odd worlds. While in the ''[[Club Nintendo]]'' comic "[[Super Mario: Verloren in der Zeit]]" [[Mario]] was transported through time and space to places such as [[Hösndösn]] with the use of a worm hole, or time slip. A worm hole was also used in the ''[[N-Gang]]'' comic "[[N-Gang#Freeze Frame|Freeze Frame]]" where Big B. was transported through a worm hole to the icy landscape that featured the ice castle. In ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'', Kevin Keene was transported to [[Videoland]] through a mystical vortext presumably a worm hole.

In physics, a worm hole or time slip is a hypothetical feature of space-time that is basically a shortcut across it (although a time slip is just a shortcut through time that may take one backwards or forwards). Worm holes are a feature of both the Super Mario franchise and the real world. In the real world, they look almost exactly like black holes.

History[edit]

Club Nintendo[edit]

In the German Club Nintendo comic "Super Mario: Verloren in der Zeit" Mario is transported through space and time to places such as Hösndösn with the use of a time slip. A worm hole is also used in the N-Gang comic "Freeze Frame" where Big B. is transported through a worm hole to the icy landscape that features the ice castle.

DK: Jungle Climber[edit]

Worm holes appear in DK: Jungle Climber, where they are used to transport Donkey Kong to different worlds. There is even a world called Wormhole.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

In Super Paper Mario, worm holes called Squarp holes appear in Outer Space. Squarp holes teleport a player from one part of a level to another, similar to Warp Pipes.
