We study noncompact and static membrane solutions in matrix theory. Demanding axial symmetry on a membrane embedded in three spatial dimensions, we obtain a wormhole solution whose shape is the same with the catenoidal solution of Born-Infeld theory. We also discuss another interesting class of solutions, membranes embedded holomorphically in four spatial dimensions, which are 1/4 BPS.
