During the [[Human-Covenant War]], the Covenant forces operated a massive refinery on Pegasi Delta, used to extract the deuterium and tritium from the moon's oceans in order to obtain fuel for their ships. With its close proximity to [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] space, Pegasi Delta became a massive forward resupply and refueling line for the Covenant ships making incursions in UNSC space. | During the [[Human-Covenant War]], the Covenant forces operated a massive refinery on Pegasi Delta, used to extract the deuterium and tritium from the moon's oceans in order to obtain fuel for their ships.

The UNSC tried many times to neutralize the refinery, including using [[nuclear weapon]]s launched from [[Slipstream space|slipspace]]. However, the [[plutonium]] linings of the weapons let off an aura of [[Čerenkov radiation]] upon reentering normal space, which therefore made their [[Stealth ablative coating|stealth coatings]] useless. The Covenant easily found and destroyed them. Similarly, there were too many Covenant ships near the planet's moon to send a slow, distantly-launched weapon, a regular invasion force or even [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s. | The UNSC tried many times to neutralize the refinery, including using [[nuclear weapon]]s launched from [[Slipstream space|slipspace]].
