A '''gravity well''', as it was called by the [[UNSC]], is a type of [[Forerunner]] [[Gravity well (physics)|gravity]]-manipulation device used to selectively attract and trap objects, often forcefully. One example of this technology was the immense gravity well located within the artificial Forerunner [[shield world]] of [[Requiem]], which consisted of a sphere of energy surrounded by three prongs extending upwards from a large circular structure. During the [[Battle of Requiem]] in [[2557]], the [[John-117|Master Chief]] and a contingent of [[SPARTAN-IV Program|SPARTAN-IV]]s and [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] were tasked with destroying the gravity well, which was protected by several [[Z-8060 particle cannon|particle cannons]], in order to allow the anchored {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} to escape the planet. Using a [[target designator]], the Master Chief was able to guide a missile to the gravity well, destroying it and releasing the ''Infinity''.<ref> '''[[Halo 4]]''', campaign level ''[[Reclaimer (level)|Reclaimer]]'' </ref> | A '''gravity well''', as it was called by the [[UNSC]], is a type of [[Forerunner]] [[Gravity well (physics)|gravity]]-manipulation device used to selectively attract and trap objects, often forcefully.
