Live in [[Thera]]! It's kind of a cool option. It's NOT like living in real w-space, but it's a neat transition if you have to teach yourself. A stepping stone. So I linked [[Thera]] already, and you can wait until I've said my spiel to read it, but read it.

So what makes [[Thera]] so interesting? It's pretty much the new center of the universe. It has so many [[wormhole]] connections to the rest of EVE that many people use it to travel from place to place. It has over 20 system connections. Not only that, it's the only wormhole with real stations. [[Sisters of Eve]] has multiple stations in [[Thera]] and kind of uses it as a hub. There are [[Clone|cloning facilities]], so you can install a [[jump clone]], which is pretty cool in my opinion. If you know anything about [[System_Security#NPC_NullSe|NPC Null]], it's a pretty close feel. Except there are no [[Gate|gates]]. Multiple corps live in the same stations and generally you want to get off station ASAP and out to a [[Safespot|safe]]. [[Scanning|Drop probes]], hit your insta-undock, cloak enroute, bounce to your safe cloaked when you're done. Now you're ready to scan your way out.

You might ask, 20+ wormhole connections? How the hell do you scan all of those down and figure out where you want to go in any sort of timely fashion? Don't, someone else already did it for you! There is an alliance out there called [https://gate.eveonline.com/Alliance/EvE-Scout%20Enclave EvE-Scout Enclave [SC0UT]] with a newbie corp in it called Signal Cartel. They are explorers that treat everyone as blues and will not attack anyone, regardless of security status of the space. Their main job is to maintain the Eve Scout website. (http://www.eve-scout.com/) In addition, if you watch https://www.twitch.tv/evescout late friday night and weds I think, he's usually taking newbies out from [[Thera]] into null or somewhere to teach them how to do exploration. Coming in through the backdoor wormholes rather than the high/low/null borders seems to be a lot safer. He also goes into how he chooses where he's going to set his destination. If you use tripwire for your hole diving, which I do, signal cartel shares all of their data with everyone. So anything they've scanned, you'll see. So you'll likely see a few hops out of [[Thera]] down the wormhole chains. Our WHC, and I guess the Uni, use a custom mapper. People say it's better, but I prefer tripwire and likely will until I'm in the WHC and figure the mapper out more.
