'''''Floral Express''''' was a [[ | '''''Floral Express''''', also known simply as '''''Express''''',<ref name="mythos164">'''[[Halo Mythos]]''', ''page 164''</ref> was a [[human]] [[freighter]].<ref>'''[[Eleventh Hour reports]]''', ''#5''</ref> | ||
== | ==History== | ||
During the [[Battle of Tribute]] in the [[2552|summer of 2552]], ''Floral Express'' escaped [[Tribute|the planet]] with two dozen colonial refugees to the [[slipstream space]], hoping to regroup with other evacuees and make their way to the [[Sol system]]. The heavily damaged freighter followed a random slipspace trajectory per the [[Cole Protocol]], and arrived at the edge of the [[Khaphrae system]] on [[2552#October|October 8, 2552]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/gamma-halo '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Gamma Halo'']</ref> | |||
While ''Floral Express'' underwent repairs, its furtive scans did not find Covenant pursuers, but instead detected anomalies within the star system. Once repaired, the vessel returned to [[Earth]], where its crew was detained by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] for possible violations of the Cole Protocol. Flight records revealed the largest anomaly's sensor signature was a close match to a [[Forerunner]] [[Astroengineering|megastructure]], leading ONI's pioneer teams to the discovery of a second Halo ringworld, [[Installation 03]].{{Ref/Reuse|mythos164}} | |||
