Description
Much like a Faraday cage is an enclosure made of conductive materials which serves to prevent electrical charges on the outside from frying things on the inside, a Teraport Cage is similar in principle, in that it mitigates the effect of Teraport Area-Denial (TAD) fields within the cage, allowing reasonably safe teraporting from within the cage to any point outside an unfriendly TAD field 2007-01-28.
