Wormholes are found via exploration. They appear as cosmic signatures with type "Unknown", and must be scanned down. When the signal is strong enough, the subtype will be listed as "Unstable Wormhole".

==== Naming ====
==== Naming & Show Info ====


Each wormhole has an entrance and an exit. The entrance is one system and the exit is in another. To see the name you will have to be on grid with the wormhole. It will be visible from the overview or from the show info window. A list of wormhole names and what they mean can be found on the wiki: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Wormhole_Information

However, it will not tell you exactly how much those values have degraded since it was first spawned. You can show info on the wormhole and use this link (http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Wormholes#Wormhole_Text) to figure out what the status of the wormhole is. For instance, is it close to collapsing due to being end of fife, or having too much mass pushed through it.

The exit side of a wormhole is always named K162. It spawns when a player initiates warp to the entrance wormhole. Therefore, you always know that if you find a K162, someone else has found the other side. The exit side will give all the same information as the entrance, with the exception of the name. You can still tell what type of space it goes to, what condition the hole is in, and whether or not larger ships can jump through it.

By using the show info dialogue, you will see a rough estimate of the time and mass allowances remaining on a wormhole, as well as the size of ship that can jump through. Many players believe there is some variance, as a freshly spawned wormhole does not always seem to have exactly the amount of mass listed. For safety's sake, allow for a 10% variance. Example show infos can be found here: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Wormholes#Example_Wormholes
