(The Thaw)

Orbital tether - The orbital tether is used to lift cargo from the surface to the supply station; it uses magnetic leverage to lift the carriage; the tether is 300 kilometers long and would take 12 hours to reach the station; Neelix says that he was on a tether maintenance team on Rinax; Neelix wants to use the tether to leave the ionsphere and get above the interference so that they can contact Voyager.
