stargates

Interstellar travel rings

Stargates are portals allowing instantaneous travel between distant points in space, popularized by the *Stargate* film and television franchise.

The concept draws on science fiction's wormhole tropes—a doorway that bypasses conventional distances.

Outside fiction, stargate sometimes describes any theoretical or imagined gateway to other worlds or dimensions: conspiracy theorists claim the government has a working stargate.
