** Occasionally, a Gas Site may be a Lab or other facility that pirates have set up to harvest the gas for themselves.

** Wormholes are temporary gates that can take your ship from your current system to almost anywhere else in space, including dangerous “uncharted” areas referred to as “wormhole space” or “w-space.” W-space areas contain the most lucrative exploration sites in the game, but | ** Wormholes are temporary gates that can take your ship from your current system to almost anywhere else in space, including dangerous “uncharted” areas referred to as “wormhole space” or “w-space.” W-space areas contain the most lucrative exploration sites in the game, but most of them are guarded by powerful Sleeper NPCs, even the Relic and Data Sites that are so tame in high-sec (as of the Phoebe release, nullsec Relic and Data sites with Sansha, Gurista, Angel and Serpentis in the name are unguarded sites in WH space). For these reasons, at the start of your career, you should leave wormholes alone... but don’t forget about them! Later articles will go into how you can begin dipping your exploration toe into the vast, untamed pond of wormhole space. See the [[Wormholes]] information page and the [[Wormholes 100]] class for more detailed information. | ||
