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 you 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.
