Illustrator Kemp Remillard detailed the interior of the Millennium Falcon. Stephen Hsu, a professor of theoretical physics at the University of Oregon, told our sister site Live Science, "You would need some very exotic type of matter in order to stabilize a wormhole, and it's not clear whether such matter exists in the universe." So, because we can't prove their existence, we certainly can't manipulate them for our own purposes. Now, while the theory of general relativity does predict wormholes, they are still just a theoretical phenomenon.
This technique uses wrinkles in the fabric of space-time, or wormholes: pieces of the fabric that fold over to connect two otherwise-distant points. The hyperdrive functions by using "hypermatter particles" to send the craft into hyperspace, an alternative dimension reached by traveling at or beyond the speed of light. The Millennium Falcon's signature speed comes from its hyperdrive, a propulsion system that pushes the vessel to light speed - though Han Solo has famously boasted that the ship can travel even faster.
