Mombasa Tether (Earth-5875)

"Taking your packages to new heights."

- - New Mombasa Uplift's slogan

The Mombasa Tether was one of Earth's five space elevators, in New Mombasa, Kenya, East African Protectorate, on Earth, used for the lifting of massive ordnance from port facilities in geosynchronous orbit at the installation's top. Owned by the New Mombasa Uplift, the tether was heavily damaged when the CAS-class assault carrier Solemn Penance performed a slipspace jump in the middle of the Battle of Mombasa.
