So here is how i would rationalize the ending given the fact that Jon N said "the wormhole is closed". There must be other wormholes out there that Cooper has to explore to find. Thats the difficult part of his tasks is going out to seek out other wormholes and hoping they will bring him to Brands planet. I think its possible that since he is bringing the TARS back with him and they were in the vicinity of Brands planet that they know their desination by record of that previous travel, they just need to find a feasible path to get there.



But they surely would have been able to detect any wormholes within range like they did with Saturn. Really this just makes closing the original wormhole pointless. If there was another wormhole around say Neptune, what's the point in closing the one by Saturn?

1) we see the tesseract disintegratin


More linked to the black hole and the 5th dimensional humans directly constructed that for Cooper.

2) Brand would have surely been discovered by then


Sling shooting around the black hole caused time dilation for her as well. She just arrived on the planet when Cooper was discovered near Saturn.

But I also cant believe that Murph and Cooper would be Ok with him setting off on that journey if they knew there was no way he could possibly succeed i.e. if there were no more wormholes and he could never come close to reaching the galaxy Brand was in.



This is what pisses me off about that interpretation. To put this in relative terms, if the sun was the size of the tip of a ballpoint pen, then the closest star to us would be 9 miles away. Since Proxima Centauri is 4.22 light years away, doing the math that would put the Milky Way Galaxy relatively at 255,000 miles in diameter, which is more distance than is between Earth and the Moon. On this scale, Andromeda Galaxy would be 10.5 million miles away from us, and that's the closest galaxy to us, and it's one of an estimated hundred billion galaxies that are all ridiculously spread out, to the point of the universe at this scale being much larger than our own galaxy on actual scale.

Unless the 5th dimensional beings spontaneously produced another wormhole solely for Cooper, then there's no way he will ever find Brand. And even if they did this, then this really destroys the film as I see it. If the wormhole is gone, then Murph on her deathbed really told her father to go kill himself. It is an absolute impossibility he finds her without that wormhole. That completely changes the context of the film as a whole to the point of it being unacceptable.

And thanks anonymous pussies for the downvotes in advance.
