A confinement bubble[1] was a large energy sphere utilized by the Forerunners to safely transport prisoners through space.

Design and operation

History

After capturing the Didact, Bornstellar-Makes-Eternal-Lasting, Chakas and Riser, the Master Builder's forces used confinement bubbles to transport them from the remains of the Didact's ship to the surface of Janjur Qom.[2] On the planet's surface, they continued to be used to hold Bornstellar's companions as well as the San'Shyuum prisoners.[1]

In August 2558, after Rion Forge was pulled through a slipspace portal to Erebus VII by the Precept using a personal slipspace unit, 343 Guilty Spark - who had once been Chakas when he was human - recalled when he, Riser and Bornstellar were captured by the Master Builder and brought to the planet's surface in confinement bubbles. Spark theorized that the same technology was used to keep Rion safe from the portal and the rigors of slipspace.[3]
