The orbital station on top of the tether had at least four gates leading to terminals from which passengers or cargo could be ferried to other UNSC-controlled worlds. During 2552, transports led to remaining UNSC worlds such as [[Gilgamesh]] and [[Ballast]], and one to other planets in the [[Sol System]]. One flight, to [[Charybdis IX]], had been indefinitely delayed, due to the planet's [[Battle of Charybdis IX|loss]] 17 years earlier. The Quito Space Tether was among the four that survived the [[Battle of Earth]].<ref>'''[[Halo Waypoint]]''', ''Space Elevator article''</ref> | The [[Quito Terminus|orbital station]] on top of the tether had at least four gates leading to terminals from which passengers or cargo could be ferried to other UNSC-controlled worlds.
