'''Coral''', formally designated '''CE-2-1239 e''' by the [[Forerunner]]s,<ref name="Catalog"/> is a [[human]]-occupied [[Human colonies|colony]] in [[CE-2-1239|a system]] 42 light-years from [[Earth]].<ref>'''i love bees''', ''[[Media:Four_goats.ogg|four_goats.ogg]]''</ref>

==History==
At an unknown date, a Coral mining operation uncovered the tip of a Forerunner installation. The miners used explosives to excavate a depth of 30 meters, uncovering the undamaged tip of the installation. [[Xenoarchaeology|Archaeologists]] employed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] were able to dig out about eighty meters of the complex, which seems to be even more expansive. The complex has been described as made from metallic crystal, symmetrical to a near-atomic scale, and adorned with decorative artistic motifs.<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', ''Conversations from the Universe''</ref>

Though the details are unknown, [[Taylor H. Miles]] reports having taken part in an engagement in the Coral [[asteroid]] belt.<ref>'''[[ONI Candidate Assessment Program V5.02A]]''', ''[[ONI Candidate Assessment Program V5.02A/Dutch|Dutch interview]]''</ref>

In late September of [[2552]], it was reported that Coral had been [[Glassing|glassed]] by the [[Covenant]]. The fate of the Forerunner installation remains unknown. Whether the colony was in fact glassed or not is speculative at best, as it is unlikely that the Covenant would have deliberately glassed a Forerunner structure.<ref>'''i love bees''', ''[[Media:they_got_it.ogg|they_got_it.ogg]]''</ref>

==Trivia==
*Coral is the home planet of [[Kamal Zaman]] and [[Sophia Bossedon]] in the ''[[I love bees|I Love Bees]]'' saga.
*The only known residents of Coral, Kamal and Sophia, speak about their families forbidding them to eat pork. In addition Kamal's surname (Zaman) is common in peoples of Muslim descent. Therefore it is quite possible that Coral had a significant Muslim population.
*The ''Halo'' novel ''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'' had a working title of "Ghosts of Coral". This led to a great deal of speculation about Coral and its background. However, it turned out to be unrelated.
