Not much is known about the '''Command Shuttle''' except that surviving [[Marines]] were brought there, according to [[Cortana]] in the level [[Halo (Level)|Halo]]. In early Halo canon, it would have presumably functioned as some form of operations base for the human forces. It was only mentioned once, and no official sources have referred to it since. With the release of [[Halo: The Flood]], the concept of this command shuttle was replaced with Alpha Base. The command shuttle is the lifeboat that brought down all vital bridge crew from the [[Pillar of Autumn]] and landed them safely on Halo.

== Speculation ==
This could be where [[Jacob Keyes|Keyes]] was transmitting his message to the [[John-117|Master Chief]] during the level [[The Silent Cartographer (Level)|The Silent Cartographer]]. He couldn't have been on the [[Pillar of Autumn]] because it had crashed. However, he could have been on a [[D77H-TCI Pelican|Pelican Dropship]], or it may refer to [[Alpha Base]]. This theory has been disproved. During the time of the Assault on the Cartographer, Keyes was on Alpha Base, overseeing the assault. He also was readying for the attack on the "weapons cache" in the Swamp.{{verify source}}

The Command Shuttle may have been an [[SKT-13 Shuttlecraft]], a larger version of the [[Bumblebee|Bumblebee Lifepod]], used to transfer the survivors to the Firebase. However, if this is the case, there is no mention of it the [[Halo: The Flood|book]].[[Halo: The Flood]]

The Command Shuttle was overrun by Covenant forces shortly after it's uneventful landing. It is highly unlikely that any [[UNSC]] forces regrouped there; the position was compromised.{{verify source}}

-The '''command shuttle''' was a type of vessel in use by the [[United Nations Space Command]].{{Ref/Level|HCE|Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|Halo}} It was likely designed for the purpose of transporting senior officers from ship to ground.

-During the [[Battle over Installation 04|opening phases]] of the [[Battle of Installation 04]] in [[2552]], the command shuttle referred to by Cortana was presumably the specialised [[SKT-9 Bumblebee]] craft used by the command crew of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} to escape the ''Pillar of Autumn'' and coordinate the UNSC forces on [[Installation 04]], prior to the bridge crew's [[Landing on Installation 04#Capturing the command crew|capture]] by Covenant forces.

-The command shuttle is mentioned passingly in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' but it is not mentioned in the game's novelization, ''[[Halo: The Flood]]''. Instead, [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]] serves as the UNSC's command center.
