I hope this one-paragraph addition makes sense. The Academy link means new players are likely to land on this page, so I figure a couple of important bits of advice ought to appear early. Do revert if you judge otherwise! |

Wormholes occurring within a W-Space system provide the sole method of inter-system travel for residents of that wormhole: there are no stargates in W-Space. | ||

They're commonly named for their sec status on both ends: High-to-high (H2H), low-to-null (L2N), null-to-high (N2H), etc. | ||
'''Known Space to Wormhole Space Wormholes''' connect K-Space to W-Space. Players who do exploration use them to access W-Space to run cosmic anomalies and signatures. W-Space inhabitants use them to shop, resupply, sell loot and products and go on K-Space PvP roams. Without these wormholes, W-Space would be a desolate wasteland. Components required to build [[Strategic Cruisers]] and their subsystems are available only in W-space. | '''Known Space to Wormhole Space Wormholes''' connect K-Space to W-Space.

Their dynamic formation and dissolution define W-Space interactions, in the form of PvE—capsuleers killing sleeper rats—or PvP—capsuleers killing each other. W-Space to W-Space wormholes are very important, in part because high-class W-Space systems rarely get direct connections to K-Space. | ||
