Commissioned on February 13, [[2546]], | Commissioned on February 13, [[2546]], it did not enter service with ONI until [[2553#May|May 7, 2553]].{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} During its time with ONI, the ''Argent Moon'' served as a top-secret research and development station for the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]].{{Ref/Reuse|blue}} The station's existence was known to only a handful of individuals, with ONI personnel experimenting with a variety of highly classified and experimental projects, as well as weapons testing. ONI crew aboard ''Argent Moon'' also experimented with technology retrieved from the [[Halo Array]].{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} The crew of ''Argent Moon'' were also experimenting with unsanctioned stealth technology.{{Ref/Book|Id=mythos185|HM|Page=185}} | ||
Following the capture of the [[Forerunner]] [[archeon-class ancilla|''archeon''-class ancilla]] [[Intrepid Eye]], she was taken to ''Argent Moon'' where the AI was imprisoned and interrogated in a room in which no technology was allowed.

However, Intrepid Eye was able to, overtime, smuggle out pieces of her code, creating remote aspects of herself all over the galaxy with which she began manipulating events to prepare humanity for the [[Mantle of Responsibility]]. Intrepid Eye also began to only help Lieutenant [[Bartalan Craddog]] who rose to the position of the station's Chief Science Officer as a result. Intrepid Eye began blackmailing Craddog to do her bidding, forcing him to give the AI access to ''Argent Moon's'' communications array so that she could reintegrate with her other aspects. When Intrepid Eye's plan to weaponize [[Asteroidea merozoite]] was endangered by [[Operation: RETRIBUTION]], she dispatched Craddog and the [[Papa-10]] security unit to retrieve the Tuwa family's organs. The attempt was thwarted by [[Blue Team]] and [[Veta Lopis]]' [[Ferret]]s, exposing Intrepid Eye's [[bioweapon]] plot. However, Intrepid Eye's involvement was never discovered with the plot being instead pinned on Craddog and [[Rear Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]] ordered the bioweapon project shut down. Instead, Intrepid Eye manipulated the final report so that it was instead given an unlimited black budget, research was moved to ''Argent Moon'' itself, [[Ensign]]s [[Jess Wallace]] and [[Kris Gaston]] were promoted to [[Lieutenant Commander]]s and given permission to seek out new asteroidea antibody donors and permission was given to test its effectiveness on the enemy species of the UNSC. Though ''Argent Moon's'' AI [[Rooker]] tried to intervene, Intrepid Eye used a control worm, deception routine, logic trap and memory leech to successfully deceive him.{{Ref/Novel|Ret}} Despite this, ONI eventually discovered Intrepid Eye's network and released millions of dumb AI hunter-killer teams that ultimately overwhelmed even Intrepid Eye's prodigious capabilities and destroyed her network and her remote aspects, leaving the ancilla trapped once more aboard ''Argent Moon''.{{Ref/Reuse|DW5}} | ||
In [[2557]], some personnel aboard the station continued experimenting with [[asteroidea merozoite]] that remained dormant and asymptomatic as it spread through a population before it was activated by an otherwise harmless aerosol dispersal;{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} all test formulas were tested on live [[Kig-Yar]] subjects. There were also [[Creatures aboard Argent Moon|unknown, misshapen creatures]] detained in the laboratory's tanks. In [[2557#March|March 2557]],{{Ref/Reuse|Blue Team}} an accident caused a particularly aggressive form of the biological agent{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} to vaporize and spread throughout the station via its air systems, killing nearly all aboard. Those closer to the accident were killed instantly and, depending on distance from the accident, the rest of the vessel's personnel began suffering symptoms from the chemical minutes or hours later. Although shipboard Rooker attempted to enforce quarantine protocols, they "massively" failed and all personnel aboard ''Argent Moon'' were dead by [[2557#March|March 17, 2557]]. As a result, ONI lost contact with ''Argent Moon'' and Rooker sent a message that warned any ONI personnel who board the station of the situation. Rooker then took further actions to quarantine the vessel; he put ''Argent Moon'' on a course that kept it away from all inhabited systems and jettisoned what remains he could into open space. On [[2557#September|September 12, 2557]], Rooker was now suffering from [[rampancy]] due to being six months past his "expiration date". Feeling he could no longer manage the vessel, he initiated [[final dispensation|his own destruction]].{{Ref/Reuse|Blue Team}} Despite being the cause of the bioweapon's research, Intrepid Eye was not responsible for the accident, having been left so isolated following the discovery and destruction of her network that she wasn't even aware that anything had happened.{{Ref/Reuse|DW5}} | In [[2557]], some personnel aboard the station continued experimenting with [[asteroidea merozoite]] that remained dormant and asymptomatic as it spread through a population before it was activated by an otherwise harmless aerosol dispersal;{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} all test formulas were tested on live [[Kig-Yar]] subjects.
