The Capture of the Telepath Transport was a battle that took place in hyperspace, where the crew of the White Star fought the Shadows to capture a transport containing weapons. When Alfred Bester came to Babylon 5, he claimed to have information through his connections at the Psi Corps about a shipment of "weapons supplies" heading for their mutual enemy, the Shadows. Bester knew that the Shadows had plans for his telepaths, and thus used the station's crew to take control of it and save his people aboard. He used the cover story of "weapons supplies" to get their help.
