A [[Remote Scanning Outpost]] located on the edge of the [[Epsilon Eridani system]], the '''''Fermion''''' was designed to detect incoming threats to the [[Reach]] military complex. It was crewed by three individuals. On August 30, 2552, the ''Fermion'' detected a fleet of over 300 Covenant vessels entering the Epsilon Eridani system. Prior to identifying the transient Slipspace contact, it attempted to initiate [[ the Cole Protocol]]. However, the station's science library (which contained every [[UNSC Astrophysics]] journal) was offline for repairs and could not be erased with the viral scavengers. The ''Fermion'' alerted [[Fleet Command|FleetCom]] and the last order the commanding officer gave was to lock out the reactor safeties and flood the reactor with deuterium. It is presumed that the station then self-destructed.<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], Chapter 31</ref>

'''[[Remote scanning outpost|Remote Scanning Outpost]] ''Fermion''''', also known as '''''Fermion'' RSO''', was an outpost in the [[Epsilon Eridani system]] designed to detect incoming threats to the [[Reach]] military complex.
==History==
By [[2552]], it was crewed by three individuals, the late [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[McRobb]], [[Lieutenant, Junior Grade]] [[Bill Streeter]], and Lieutenant (J.G.) [[David Brightling]].<ref name="pretty">'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 282'' (2001 edition)</ref> On August 30, 2552, ''Fermion'''s [[Slipstream space probe]]s detected a [[Fleet of Particular Justice|fleet]] of over 300 [[Covenant]] vessels entering the Epsilon Eridani system. Prior to identifying the transient Slipspace contact, it attempted to initiate the [[United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1|Cole Protocol]]. However, the station's science library (which contained every [[UNSC Astrophysics]] journal) was offline for repairs and could not be erased with the [[viral data scavengers|viral scavengers]]. ''Fermion'' alerted [[UNSC Fleet Command|FLEETCOM]] and the last order commanding officer McRobb gave was to lock out the reactor safeties and flood the reactor with [[deuterium]], triggering the station's self-destruction.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 286'' (2001 edition)</ref>


The three man crew of the ''Fermion'' were the late [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[McRobb]], [[Lieutenant, Junior Grade]] [[Bill Streeter]], and Lieutenant (J.G.) [[David Brightling]].<ref name="pretty">[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], page 282</ref>

The ''Fermion'' was also referred to as a "Remote Sensing Station,"<ref name="pretty"/> however it fulfilled the same role as the ''[[Archimedes]]'' and can be classified in the same way.
