One such silithium-based comet was observed passing by the Gamma Quadrant terminus of the Bajoran wormhole in 2371. The comet was drawn towards the wormhole, an event which was taken as proof, by some, of Trakor's Third Prophecy. The comet's silithium trail created a subspace filament within the wormhole, allowing it to be used for subspace communications without the need to open the wormhole completely. (DS9: "Destiny")

- Silithium is a material found in comets. In 2371, a comet in the Gamma Quadrant containing silithium was drawn towards the Bajoran wormhole. Benjamin Sisko and Kira Nerys stopped the silithium comet from collapsing the wormhole by shielding the comet with the shields of a shuttlepod. Some silithium leaked out, allowing communications through the wormhole. (DS9 episode: "Destiny") Silithium infusions were later used in certain circumstances to send messages through the wormhole.
