Aridia has a cone of Amarr yellow from center to between ~2:00 and ~5:00, and brownish orange elsewhere. It has a telltale zoom-out effect.
Black Rise has a telltale red spot (marked).
Branch is nearly identical to Deklein; tilted clockwise a bit, and without the splotch beneath.
Cache has a small bright reddish-yellow patch on the left and a brownish dusty patch shooting out to the right.
Catch has an indistinct orange & brown smear to the left and a telltale small yellow/orange/white nebula to the right.
Cloud Ring shows a portion of its eponymous Ring, cut off at top and right, and Placid's nebula slightly shrunk beneath it.
Cobalt Edge has the Dronelands electric blue nebula bottom-left and a brown blob top-right.
Curse has the yellow-red nebula above and a spindly nebula jutting out to the bottom-right.
Deklein has a distinctive gray-blue color and bar nebula all the way across. A splotch from center to bottom (marked) distinguishes it from Branch.
Delve has the dustiness of Stain & company to the right and a giveaway white/yellow/orange streak shooting from center to bottom-left.
Derelik is like Devoid. Unlike Devoid, the brown clouds & voids above and below center look distinct rather than smeared out.
Detorid is like the left-right mirror image of Immensea and Impass; the southeast's electric blue-green juts to ~8:00 and reddish orange to ~2:00.
Devoid is like Derelik. Unlike Derelik, the brown clouds & voids above and below center are smeared out away from the center.
Domain has a telltale brown H in the center.
Esoteria has Stain's faint dust with an arm jutting from center to bottom-left. Unlike Period Basis & Paragon soul, it's mostly black in its upper-left quadrant.
Essence is the only one of the six Gallente regions with Caldari blue at its top-right.
Etherium Reach is like The Spire with reversed scaling; it's dominated by the red/orange/yellow nebula seen in Geminate at left. The blue nebula is reduced at right.
Everyshore has a distinctive greenish-gray section at bottom, shooting from center to between ~4:00 and ~7:00.
Fade is, weirdly, gray/brown like Stain & co., but has the Branch/Deklein arm nebula sticking out to the top-right.
Feythabolis is quite like Omist, but its blue-green at left points to between ~10:00 and ~11:00 and has red in its lower sections.
Fountain is distinctive; an orange nebula from center to lower-left and a gray/brown one from center to right.
Geminate has a spindly gray arm at left and a red/orange/yellow nebula at right. The rightward nebula makes it look more like Angel regions than Northern ones.
Genesis has two cones that look like they're exploding from the center towards ~11:00 and ~4:00.
Great Wildlands has an extremely-distinctive & compact red hourglass nebula at center.
Heimatar is Minmatar red; the two bars pointing straight up from center distinguish it from the two other Minmatar regions.
Immensea is opposite of Detorid; red to the left, blue-green to the right (and more or less level instead of canted).
Impass is a mirror of Detorid. It's Immensea but turned counter-clockwise a bit & stretched; red to ~8:00 and reddish orange to ~1:00.
Insmother has the yellow-red nebula to the left and the hourglass nebula at the top-right.
Kador has a giveaway center; pitch black with an Amarr golden yellow square in it.
Khanid is, like Kor-Azor, more brown than yellow. It has Esoteria's distinctive gray bar at center pointing to ~7:00.
Kor-Azor is more brown than Amarr yellow, and is the only Amarr nebula with green.
Lonetrek is by far the brightest blue of the Caldari regions, and pure.
Malpais is the closest (largest) view of the Dronelands' electric blue nebula, and the arm is barely visible, split between left and right, just above center.
Metropolis is Minmatar red; the whitish-yellow sphere-like bit at center distinguishes it from the two other Minmatar regions.
Molden Heath is Minmatar red; the single bar pointing straight down distinguishes it from the two other Minmatar regions.
Oasa is like Cobalt Edge, but the Dronelands electric blue nebula is expanded to take up the entire left side; the brown bit is shrunk and darkened.
Omist is quite like Feythabolis; the southeast's blue-green spreads from center to between 8:00 and 10:00. A gray arm reaches from center to ~4:00.
Outer Passage is like Perrigen Falls, but has a blue arm beneath it whereas PF has only gray beneath, and its arm (marked) starts to the right rather than below center.
Outer Ring shows the full cosmic ring which gives Cloud Ring its name.
Paragon Soul is Stain's dust, but brighter and grayer to the bottom, darker & browner above. Telltale dark splotches distinctly point from center to ~7:00 (marked).
Period Basis is Paragon Soul but zoomed-in & brighter. The splotches are still there but they don't point to anything.
Perrigen Falls is like Outer Passage; differentiate it by noting that it has no bright blue under it and its arm (marked) starts below center rather than at right.
Placid is the most compact of the six Gallente regions; almost looks like it's bulging out from the center. A wee green arm points to ~9:00.
Pochven is a very unique red. The giant rock & ice structures on the grid (and the Show Info window) are dead giveaways, though.
Providence is the most easily-identifiable NS region; it's the only NS nebula with that giveaway Amarr golden-yellow.
Pure Blind is pure Caldari blue. Can be confused for Drone regions, but it's a bit duller & not as spindly.
Querious is dusty and brown as well, but with a wide blue-gray expanse beneath and a telltale brightish-white patch jutting straight up from its center (marked).
Scalding Pass is a yellow-red mass with a telltale bright white section at the top-right (marked).
Sinq Laison has a black crab claw (top & bottom pincers of claw marked).
Solitude has the only distinct red in the six Gallente regions; green from center to ~11:00, red from center to ~4:00.
Stain has the darkest of the nebulae; some faint brownish dust.
Syndicate is the only Gallente Green NS region without the Cloud Ring in it. Looks a bit like Placid, rotated and zoomed.
Tash-Murkon has faint but giveaway reddishness atop its yellowish-white core (marked).
Tenal shows a portion of the dull yellow Jove nebula at top right; dead giveaway.
Tenerifis is very distinctive; the southeast's blue-green is dulled here, and there's a telltale red splotch with tinges of yellow.
The Bleak Lands has two distinctive bright yellow-white cones projecting from center to top and bottom, split by orangey brown at center.
The Citadel has what look like blue-white electric wings emerging from center to the left and right.
The Forge has a blueish-gray cone from center to top and a black inverted V from center to bottom.
The Kalevala Expanse has a distant but complete view of the Dronelands' electric blue nebula; a faint gray-brown arm reaches from center to top-left.
The Spire is Etherium Reach with its scaling reversed; the red/orange/yellow nebula is small & hourglass-shaped at left and the blue nebula's big at right.
Tribute is Caldari blue but it has a giveaway red splotch, bottom-left (marked).
Vale of the Silent has the same color as Venal but without the arm nebula. Brighter in the center, with a tiny giveaway red patch below-center (marked).
Venal has the Branch/Deklein nebula at its core but more tilted and faded.
Verge Vendor's the yellowest & spikiest of the six Gallente regions.
Wicked Creek has the yellow-red nebula on the right with dusty blue & gray to the left.
C1 is mostly steely blue-gray with hints of purple. Maybe that's a pair of headphones ( ☊ ) in the center?
C2 has a telltale black spot shaped like a kidney bean.
C3 shows a giveaway red swirl.
C4's center is kinda like a yin-yang symbol; white & black (or very dark purple).
C5 has a bright white cloud emerging to the right from a pinkish-red cloud.
C6 is given away in the Show Info as "deadly unknown" space, but it's hard to mistake its orange-tinted red and compact white center.
Holes leading to Thera, C13s and Drifter holes are the dullest and dimmest of the JS holes; blue-gray overall and very dark from ~1:00 to ~6:00.
- hover the cursor over regions to see screenshots of them. they're alphabetically listed, with J-Space tacked onto the end
- this version of the page lacks a map; if you know (or want to learn) the relative positions & colors of New Eden's regions, try the map-based version
- it's easiest to ID wormholes on Low shader quality settings. I've not used these, but here's Tiger Ears' guide for Medium/High Quality, and here's Ashy's
- I find Low settings easiest because Medium and High warp the edges of the hole and add filaments and reflections, all of which alter and/or obscure the view
- here are the above screenshots as 1080p stills and ten-second video clips (download or just view in your browser)
- these were all taken on Low shader quality settings with the Orbit Camera zoomed all the way in & its alt-zoom was unmodified
- hold Alt and left-click an object to move the camera to it (only works after exiting warp). you can reset the alt-zoom by going all the way out then back in 3 scroll wheel ticks
- set your probing client to some 16:9 resolution and overlay a screenshot or clip if you want to positively ID a region or just learn (Control + F9 toggles UI)
- wormholes show versions of the skyboxes (visual surroundings) of the systems on the other side
- as of July 2024, holes can connect to 13
JSJ-Space systems, whose names all start with the letter J, accessible only via wormholes - 2,603 total
classes, 7 of which share a skybox, and 65 KSKnown Space systems, aka High-Sec (HS), Low-Sec (LS), and Null-Sec (NS) - 5,458 in total
regions. the KS regions have visual similarities based on their relative locations
- KS region visuals are all unique, so together with Pochven, there are 72 possible wormhole visuals
- note: wormholes neither spawn in nor connect to Zarzakh or to the 3 regions with 6-character names between the Dronelands and Guristas space (in the Northeast)
- JS visuals are all rather distinct, and Thera and C6 have dead text giveaways in Show Info. Show Info tells are explained here (Control + F "text")
- the 7 classes which share a skybox are Thera (C12), the 25 Tripnulls (C13), and the five Drifter/Uni systems (C14-18)
- Drifters' KS holes are obvious because of the deadspacing and the structures to either side, but their statics (all to JS) aren't deadspaced
- if you want to see the interior skybox of a region (as opposed to the flattened wormhole graphic) but don't wanna travel in-game:
- search for a system in a region of interest either in the Route tool or the Search Anything box (sample systems of a given JS class listed below for convenience)
- C13, Drifters, and Thera are alas, unavailable to view (but Thera is easy to visit)
- J111301: C1
- J111141: C2
- J222222: C3
- J222125: C4
- J222834: C5
- J222604: C6
- for known space, if you don't know the name of a system there, search for the region on DOTLAN and select any system then carry on below
- right-click the system and select Show Info
- select the Orbital Bodies tab
- right-click a planet and select View Planetary Industry (hat tip to praetor29 on reddit)
