| The '''Battle of New Harmony'''{{Ref/Reuse|page83}} was an engagement between the [[United Nations Space Command]] and the [[Covenant]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]] on the [[human]] [[Human colonies|colony]] world of [[New Harmony]]. It took place in the first half of [[2537]], prior to July 27.{{Ref/Reuse|enc272}}
| | '''The Battle of New Harmony''' was an engagement between [[UNSC]] and [[Covenant]] forces around the UNSC colony world of [[New Harmony]]. During the battle, a prowler, the ''[[Razor's Edge]]'', managed to attach a telemetry probe to a retreating [[Unnamed Covenant Frigate|Covenant Frigate]], allowing it to track the ship and locate [[K7-49]]<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghost of Onyx]]''', page 83</ref> |
| | . This subsequently led to [[Operation: PROMETHEUS]]. |

| During the battle, [[Danforth Whitcomb]] led [[UNSC Navy]] forces into battle, securing one of the few UNSC naval victories of the Covenant War.{{Ref/Reuse|enc299}} In the battle, [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Razor's Edge}} managed to attach a [[telemetry probe]] to a retreating [[Covenant frigate]], allowing the prowler to track the ship and locate [[K7-49]], an [[asteroid]] serving as a major Covenant shipyard. This subsequently led to the strategic, though costly, victory during [[Operation: PROMETHEUS]].{{Ref/Reuse|page83}}

| While the Battle of New Harmony was one of the few naval victories for the UNSC, the engagement has also been referred to as the '''fall of New Harmony'''. As the battle resulted in [[civilian]] casualties on New Harmony,{{Ref/Reuse|kat}} the Covenant may have proved victorious on the world's surface.
