Create wormhole on planet?

Can one create a wormhole at the location of a planet? I once found a planet right on the other side of a wormhole, so I think they are not mutually exclusive...
Thanks!

Having a wormhole and a planet in the same sector is completely all right. In fact, a popular defensive strategy is to open a number of wormholes in the same sector as a ring-world or somesuch using a multitude ot weapon platforms as warp-point defense.

You just have to have set up the game to allow "Warp Points Anywhere In System" (or something like that)....

no you dont. you can always create a wormhole wherever you want. you can never control where the other end will open, but it will always be in the target system, in a position relative to where the origin system is.

the "allow WP anywhere in system" thing, will cause starting warp points to be some random distance "in" from the edge of the system, instead of on the systems edge.

But if you have a wormhole on planet, why planet does not fall through ???

Probably the same reason why the moons don't crash into the planets
