'''Farthest Outpost''' is the thirteenth track included in ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]'', and plays during the ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[campaign]] level ''[[The Ark]]''. It is composed of ''Farthest Outpost'' (0:00-2:03), ''No Time for Sightseeing'' (2:03-2:49), and ''Make Them Pay'' (2:49-5:14).

''Farthest Outpost'' (2:03) begins with the vocals singing gracefully, unaccompanied. Strings enter to echo the melody before muted percussion enter, leading into a section of bass line and percussive beats, the latter of which was played using snare drums and hi-hat. Low strings enter, playing a flowing melody as the vocals continue softly in the background. After the melody has repeated a few times, the percussion takes over while the the strings briefly plays the melody of ''Weight of Failure'' from ''[[Prologue (music)|Prologue]]'' (in ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]''). The piece plays in the opening cutscene, when the [[Fleet of Retribution]] arrives at [[Installation 00]]. The section with drum and bass line plays in the menu of ''[[Halo 3: Mythic]]''. The name of the piece is most likely in reference to Installation 00, which could be considered the "farthest outpost" of the [[Forerunner]]s due to its remote location from the [[Milky Way]].

''No Time for Sightseeing'' (0:46) is a short reprise of the digital notes and bass line from the track ''[[Out of Shadow]]'', though using muted percussion, thus resembling a reorchestration of the second part of ''Broken Gates'' in ''[[Mombasa Suite]]'' (from ''Halo 2: Original Soundtrack''), albeit without the male vocal. This section plays when [[John-117]] launches the attack on the the [[Type-27 Mantis]] under construction.

''Make Them Pay'' (2:25) is a full reorchestration of ''[[Perilous Journey]]'' (from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''), though the sounds of the strings sections are considerably crisper compared to the original rendition. A heavy bass drum is audible in the background playing seven beats before resting and then repeating. This section plays when John-117 commandeers the vehicles at the crashed [[D77H-TCI Pelican]].

-''Farthest Outpost'' (2:03) begins with the vocals singing gracefully, unaccompanied. Strings enter to echo the melody before muted percussion enter, leading into a section of bass line and percussive beats, the latter of which features the same snare drums and hi-hat parts from ''[[In Amber Clad (music)|In Amber Clad]]'' (from ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]''). Low strings enter, playing a flowing melody as the vocals continue softly in the background. After the melody has repeated a few times, the percussion takes over while the strings briefly plays the melody of ''Weight of Failure'' (from ''[[Prologue (music)|Prologue]]'' in ''Halo 2: Original Soundtrack''). The piece plays in the opening cutscene, when the [[Fleet of Retribution]] arrives at [[Installation 00]], and makes a reprise in the [[Halo 3 credits|credits]] of ''Halo 3'' in the form of ''Duty Bound'' (from the later track ''[[Roll Call]]''). The opening strings were later featured in the track ''[[From the Vault]]'' from ''[[Halo: Reach Original Soundtrack]]''.

-''No Time for Sightseeing'' (0:46) is a short reprise of the digital notes and bass line from the track ''[[Out of Shadow]]'', though using muted percussion, thus resembling a rearrangement of the second section of ''Broken Gates'' (from ''[[Mombasa Suite]]'' in ''Halo 2: Original Soundtrack''), albeit without the male vocal. This section plays when [[John-117]] launches the attack on the {{Pattern|Skar'wa|Mantis}} under construction.
-''No Time for Sightseeing'' is also played in [[The Ring Experience]] of ''[[Halo: Outpost Discovery]]'', during the section in which the [[OQ-45 Honeybee|Honeybee]] drone crosses the desert landscape on the [[Halo Array|Halo]] with various wildlife, before proceeding to enter the ring's internal superstructure to encounter [[Sentinel]]s.  The section is followed by the gregorian chant of the [[Halo Theme]].

-*The name ''Farthest Outpost'' is most likely in reference to Installation 00, which could be considered the "farthest outpost" of the [[Forerunner]]s due to its remote location from the [[Milky Way]].
-*The name ''No Time for Sightseeing'' likely alludes to the opening of the level, when Johnson tells the Marines to enjoy the view before being deployed on the Ark.
