Glossary

einstein-rosen bridge (noun)
The scientific name for a wormhole, which is a theoretical shortcut connecting two distant points in space and time. If you imagine spacetime as a sheet of paper, this bridge folds the paper so you can pocket-link two far-off places, just like Rick's portal gun.
