Now it's time to start scouting, but before you jump...

# <span style="color:#FF00FF; font-size:125%; font-weight:bold">Bookmark the wormhole</span>

#* Bookmarks created from a scan probe ~~result (in your scanner window) can have >~~5km ~~variability~~ resulting in warp to 0km not placing you in jump range.

#* Bookmarks created at a signature location from your scan probe results are often more than 5km from the Wormhole's actual location, resulting in your warp to 0km not placing you in jump range.

#* As such ~~it is advisable to re-~~bookmark the wormhole while on grid.

#* As such, you should bookmark the wormhole itself from your overview while on grid.

# ~~Check the wormhole~~ ID (if it ~~isn~~'t a K162~~) for max wormhole stats and system link type~~

# The Wormhole Type ID from your overview can get some extra stats, if it's not a K162.

#* Google the ID, first result is nearly always the right one

~~#* Type it into [http://wh.pasta.gg/ Wormhol.es]~~

#* Reference the [[Wormhole_Information|table in the wiki]]

# Show ~~info~~ on the wormhole, reference this page for details: [[Wormholes#Wormhole_Text|Wormhole Text]] and [[Wormholes#Example_Wormholes|Example Wormholes]]

# Next, Show Info on the wormhole and reference this page for details: [[Wormholes#Wormhole_Text|Wormhole Text]] and [[Wormholes#Example_Wormholes|Example Wormholes]]

#* Make sure the wormhole is stable enough in both mass and time to safely jump through

#* If it doesn't have enough mass or time remaining for a round trip, plan on scanning your way out again, or find another wormhole.

#Attempt visual identification of wormhole destination

#*[[Wormholes#Wormhole_Identification|Wormhole Identification]]

Even if the wormhole type is K162, you have some idea what you're jumping into, and whether or not you should be able to get back via this wormhole.
