Wormholes and jove space

Greetings,

I did some brainstorming about the recent activity in Jove space (Caroline star and shutdown off the gates) and was thinking what it could have been.
Had the Jovians a failed experiment? (to cure the Jovian Disease once and for all, but made the drifters instead? and closed the gates to hold them in? )
was there a battle? and if so, whit who? and how did they get there since there is no gate to there?

and at that point i was thinking about wormholes.
they appear everywhere but not in Jove space, how can that be?

end then i did do some research, and found out that the Sansha's Nation have been to Jove space through wormholes, let me quote the part:

The Official Wiki wrote:
The Nation has also discovered a method of creating artificial wormholes, seemingly at will. These wormholes allow only Sansha ships to pass through, though they can be disrupted by continued gravimetric jamming. The method the Nation uses to create and restrict these wormholes is unknown by the rest of the cluster, giving them a huge logistical advantage.

fun fact: Drifters use the same technology to travel, so its not that "unknown" any more...

so this means the Jovians can't block artificial wormholes, but they can block the natural wormholes?
And if they can do that, how do they do it? cant find any lore about it...

They committed suicide like the Asgard but bigger and more spectacular.

Some shattered systems are occupied by Sansha and there's the rare Battleground with Sansha structures...not new.

Yeah, this needs to be answered. I bet it becomes another thing in a year or so. Meanwhile they likely have a tool to collapse the wormhole - rather than "block" the wormhole.

Kind of like a cyno jammer.

There was only one Sansha incursion into Jove space.. so we can assume either they got their ass handed to them, (which is likely as the Sansha at that time were slightly less advanced than the Empires) or the Jove started jamming their WH's..

Sansha structures and battlefields being in WH's however does make sense, as they use WH's, and we can safely assume they aren't respectful of the Sleepers..

There was also an event a few months ago where a Sansha incursion in Null, the Sansha left via Gates, rather than back through their WH.. speculation being someone else meaner was on the other side of their hole lol.

I speculate that the Sansha and Sleepers not controlled by The Other are at war, fighting for control of WH's.

i do know that its not new.. but its just odd that they can make a wormhole to jove space?

Did you ever see a jove wormhole collapsing fleet? me neither...
if they did it that way we should have seen that by now...
