User:XW3 AR3 L3GION/Gravity Beam

The Gravity Beam or Starcraft Tether is a concentrated beam of projected gravity used by vacuum-capable vessels and stations to control external objects such as small vessels or asteroids. The Gravity Beam is mainly used to micro-manage docking procedures to prevent damage to the ship and the station and to stop fleeing vessels without damaging the vessel itself. Other versions of the Gravity Beam can be used in a variety of situations although on a much smaller scale.

The Gravity Beam is closely related to the Gravity Lift.
