Tether Satellite being deployed from the Shuttle Bay of STS-75 ..
Tether Satellite begins to glow as it gathers electricity from the Ionosphere ..
Tether Satellite glows brighter as the power collected far exceeds predicted levels, as much as ten times. The tether cable begins to undulate from the power surge
Tether Satellite cable fries the connection and breaks free... still producing energy. The glow increases and the cable gets wider. ( More on this later)
Tether Satellite worth 100 million has
overloaded the circuits within minutes of being
activated because the NASA Scientists under
estimated the potential. The tether in just a few
moments of operation produced 10 times the
anticipated power and they forgot to install
a circuit breaker.

At this point the STS 75 Astronauts
switched to Infrared camera. What you are seeing
is the Tether at about 80 nautical miles away from
the Shuttle. Notice that it has straightened out
and has become much wider. This is commented on by
Mission Control as they say its wider than
expected.
It is also at this point that the plasma collected by the tether that is "still glowing like a fluorescent bulb" (according to a NASA report issued after the event (See Below)) attracts the "Critters" or UFO's as most people call them. To see more about the "Critters" VISIT HERE In the image include below you can see the Tether Satellite at the tip. By this time the Tether is almost as wide as the Satellite itself. Going behind the tether you see one of the "Critters" It is CLEARLY behind the tether. This is what NASA calls "dust and debris" The purpose of this paper is to show the tether however, not the "Critters". If you want to know more about them either email us or check out the pages linked to above.

| Matt (Matyas) had written me that he has found documents hinting at a Tether in operation near Jupiter. He is still following that up, but it seems the Cassini Spacecraft has found one or more in the vicinity of Saturn | ||||||

Is this the lost Tether Satellite? Or is there another one in operation near Saturn?
Judging by the scale of Saturn, it would seem this is NOT the lost Satellite, but a much larger one. The STS 75 Tether was 12 miles long... This one is huge (Note Dates and Size are being calculated)
