Dark matter is one of the most elusive components of our universe, with scientists trying to find physical evidence of it to match our mathematical models of space.
While we have been so far unable to see it or measure it directly, physicists believe the enigmatic material fills in the gaps in the universe, while matter makes up the 'stuff', like planets and stars.
But a new paper has suggested that adding a sprinkling of dark matter to a supermassive black hole could result in one of the strangest objects in the universe - a wormhole.
Wormholes are the stuff of science fiction, with theorists describing them as a tunnel through space-time which could connect two distant points in the universe.
They have formed the basis for tales of travelling unimaginable distances.
