Kate Stalling was a member of the second exploratory expedition force sent from the [[United Nations Space Command]] to [[Installation 07]] circa [[2558]]. As a part of the [[Zeta Halo project]], Stalling's mission was to retrieve [[Forerunner]] artifacts of critical importance. Her research on the ring led to the discovery of the [[Conspectus network]] hubs, the ring's data storehouse that contained its system protocols, event logs, as well as systems for maintenance, communications, and defense.{{Ref/Reuse|rp22}}

On [[2559#December|December 12, 2559]], the [[Banished]] launched an assault on Installation 07.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=25}} At some point in the battle, Stalling was captured by the Banished,{{Ref/Reuse|rp22}} likely near [[Annex Ridge (location)|Annex Ridge]], leaving her unable to respond to communications from [[Codename: POINTER]].{{Ref/Game|Id=ahap|HI|Audio log (Halo Infinite)#Outpost Intel 3|UNSC Audio log|Detail=Outpost Intel #11 - A Hastily-Assembled Plan}} For months, her captors, the [[Sangheili]] [[Blademaster]] [[Jega 'Rdomnai]] and the [[Jiralhanae]] [[Bloodstars#Banished|Bloodstar]] [[Gorian]], tortured Stalling. They stole her research, hoping to take control of the ring's defensive systems. Stalling was taken to multiple excavation sites in search of the Conspectus network hubs, but eventually she was abandoned in a cave at an excavation site. Unable to move due to her broken legs, Stalling drew a map to a Conspectus network hub on the cave wall.{{Ref/Reuse|rp22}}

On [[2560#March|March 4, 2560]], Stalling’s mutilated form was discovered by [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV]] [[Tomas Horvath]] of [[Fireteam Intrepid]] from {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}. The Spartan was tracking Gorian’s activity on the ring before [[Elfie|his personal AI]] detected Stalling's life signature. Stalling told Horvath of the Conspectus network and the names of her captors, including Gorian, who Horvath had met earlier in the battle. Although Horvath initially refused to perform a mercy kill on her, Stalling insisted and was eventually given one of Horvath's [[M6 series|M6 sidearm]]. Horvath helped Stalling hold the pistol to her chin, and she waited for him to leave the cave before pulling the trigger. Afterwards, Horvath returned to record the map and carried Stalling's body out of the cave. The Spartan buried her in a place overlooking a body of water. Horvath vowed to locate the Conspectus network hub and send the ring's location to the UNSC, so Stalling's sacrifice would not be in vain.{{Ref/Reuse|rp22}}
