These gas fields, usually created by the death of an old star, slowly form new stars due to the gravitational pull of its gas molecules. Due to the ever-changing nature of gas nebulae, most radar and scanning technolgy is unable to penetrate them. Science officers are therefore advised to rely on probes and visual observations.]])

item = space_objects:addEntry('Wormhole')
item:setLongDescription([[A wormhole, also known as an Einstein-Rosen bridge, is a phenomena that connects two points of spacetime. Jump drives operate in a similar fashion, but instead of being created at will, a wormhole occupies a specific location in space. Objects that enter a wormhole instantaneously emerge from the other end, which might be anywhere from a few feet to thousands of light years away.
