Depends what you mean by a &quot;hole through space&quot;? Yes, its a physical passageway that itself consumes space, like a physical tunnel you would drive your car though. The magnetic field is traveling through space, through a shielded device that also takes up space.<p>Think of this like Fiber Optics, they are &quot;wormholes&quot; for light, or Electronic wires, they are &quot;wormholes&quot; for electricity. The wormhole is just a metaphor for the illusion.
