1) Past the edge of the Airlock border? (Metal Rails)
or
2) Past the Alliance Station wall?

My thought right now is that it is number 1.
Is this correct?
At Midwest the PS was allowed to grab any ball that the tethered tongs could reach, even if it was past the airlock. The thing was that if they touched a robot at all, they would be disqualified from the match.
