So /sci/, I dabble in wormhole theory and I thought of something. What the fuck would happen if a traversable wormhole opened in space and on earth? Would it absolutely fuck us over?

Dunno, maybe not right away. My guess is that we are sucked in like a vacuum to wherever the worm hole takes us. An instanteous travel would be unnoticed, while a not so instant one could emulate what it would look like traveling in a sci-fi spaceship. If it happens to be in front of a star, well tough.
There'd be little time for screams, and we'd be dead within the hour. Venus zone, we would all be burnt like a lobster boiling in the cauldron. Painful. Anywhere else not in the Goldilocks zone and Earth's water and global temperature will be beyond the freezing point rendering in the next Hoth, or perhaps a new museum to display our frozen corpses....

So what you're saying is experiment in space. If we are to somehow map out the universe and open wormholes in different places, the two "hub" would need to be in outer orbit. Although, thinking of it like that, spacial warping may very well stop too much from going in over vast distances, like a sort of membrane. That, or just open up a one way.

i imagine it would suck some of our atmosphere due to pressure on the surface until there was some sort of "bubble" of atmosphere with similar pressure around the other end of the wormhole but nothing dramatic since gravitational forces from earth would work on that end too

Good point, but then again, it would be safe to calculate just how large of a bubble there would be.

Not going to happen, wormhole just mathematical dream

Just because mater can traverse a wormhole doesn't mean it won't be spaghettified by gravity waves before going through.
