== What is w-space? ==

W-space~~, Wormhole Space~~, is the collection of 2500 star systems reachable only through wormholes. This space is all described as "unknown", as it does not appear on any map. The true security level is always -1.0 (however the EVE client tells you its 0.0). In addition, its sovereignty is "unclaimable", meaning that players are unable to claim space, build stations, upgrade, or any other benefits of typical 0.0 space.

==== General system layout ====

Although in general w-space has the same appearance as k-space, note that there are no NPC agents, no stations, no place to dock up to repair or log off safely. Many w-systems are very large, sometimes over 100 AU across, so care should be taken when using D-scan to survey a system, and when making long warps.

==== Local Chat ====

When learning about being safe in high-security, low-security and null-security space, one of the most touted tactics is to watch local. The local channel contains a list of all the pilots in system, and will alert you the moment someone enters system. In w-space, that's all gone. There is still a local channel, but it will only display pilots that speak! A new w-space system could be entirely deserted, or contain a large fleet, but local would remain the same. Unless a pilot must do so as a last resort, nobody ever talks in local in w-space - you reveal yourself, and you learn nothing.
