| contents | A Morris-Thorne wormhole can only be sustained by violating the null energy condition, thereby requiring the existence of "exotic matter," a requirement that many researchers consider unphysical. Using a mostly qualitative approach, it is proposed in this note that the basic problems can be overcome by purely relativistic considerations. The implication is that a Morris-Thorne wormhole is likely to be a compact stellar object. |
