Wormholes are space anomalies like rifts in space, connecting two locations. Like stargates, they allow the travel of ships from one system to another. Unlike stargates, wormholes are not permanent. They connect two systems for only a short time, and collapse when too much time has passed, or too much mass has passed through them. Wormholes can connect two systems quite far from each other, and can provide temporary shortcuts to areas that would otherwise take many jumps to get to. Wormholes can also connect to uncharted space, or wormhole space. These systems are uncharted, and do not operate like normal systems do.
Finding Wormholes
Wormholes can be found by scanning down cosmic signatures. Once a wormhole is probed down, it can be warped to and activated much like a stargate.
You may refer to the Scanning & Probing and Exploration guide if you want to learn about finding wormholes.
Wormholes Lead to
Many different places. A subset wormholes connect two New Eden systems(henceforth referred to as 'Known Space' or 'K-Space') and some others connect from K-Space to the Anoikis(henceforth referred to as 'Wormhole Space' or 'W-Space') galaxy. Most wormholes form within W-Space, providing the sole method for inter-system travel since there are no stargates in W-Space.
