Ouroboros Wormhole

+0
−0

So let's say that some advanced future civilization is capable of creating and manipulating wormholes, and uses a network of wormholes for their FTL transportation. If an enemy gets too close to one of these wormhole stations, they can self destruct by expanding the wormhole so that the whole station is suddenly inside the wormhole.

What would happen to that station? The wormhole would almost instantaneously evaporate, but would the station be destroyed or just moved through the wormhole network?

Now, say that this civilization is just tired of living and doesn't want to leave any trace. What happens if they self-destruct all of their wormhole stations simultaneously?
