| '''Buwan''' is the primary [[natural satellite]] orbiting the planet [[Balaho]], the homeworld of the [[Unggoy]]. Located in the [[Tala system]], Buwan orbits Balaho alongside the planet's secondary moon [[Padpad]].{{Ref/Reuse|best}}{{Ref/Reuse|nelson}}

|
| Along with Padpad, Buwan was hollowed out by the [[Covenant]]'s tithe [[fleet]]s, the resources of the moons stripped to feed the [[assembly forges]] of the Holy City of [[High Charity]].<ref>''[[Halo: Warfleet]]'', p. 55</ref> The moon was the site of a Covenant [[hydro-processing center]] that harnessed Buwan's [[water]]s to refuel and power [[capital ship]]s. The facility was abandoned following [[Great Schism|the splintering]] of the Covenant, though it continues to operate via automated subsystems.{{Ref/Reuse|nelson}} [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] scans indicate that the moon was completely abandoned after the [[Human-Covenant War]], though ONI continues to monitor the Tala system.{{Ref/Reuse|11th}}
