special relativity - Using wormholes to see out of the visible universe



As is commonly known, using our telescopes, we can only see so much of the universe because of its faster than light expansion. However, although under normal circumstances it is impossible to see beyond the observable universe, but what if we aimed our telescope at a wormhole? Because Einstein proved that light is able to be bent by the influence of gravity and curvature of spacetime, would not the light traveling through the wormhole be bent in such a manner that it could potentially travel outside of the observable universe and then back to us. So could this act as a "window" of sorts to see farther than we can with conventional methods?
