''Meridian 5-Alpha'' was the last colony support ship sent to serve the [[human]] [[Outer Colony]] of [[Meridian]], following the world's colonization. After the [[Battle of Meridian]] began in [[2548]], ''Alpha'' and a handful of other support ships were relocated to the far side of [[Hestia V]] for safety to avoid the [[Covenant]] ships engaging the [[United Nations Space Command]] over Meridian. While the battle waged on for three years in the [[Hestia system]], the UNSC was ultimately forced to abandon Meridian in [[2551]] and the Covenant [[glassed]] the world.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} However, ''Meridian 5-Alpha'' and its fellow surviving colony support ships were later operated by the [[Liang Dortmund Corporation]], as the corporation worked to recolonize Meridian following end of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. ''Alpha'' was used by Liang Dortmund as one of the primary sustaining resources for their recolonization efforts. [[Meridian Station]] was built up around it.

By the time of the Created [[Battle over Installation 07|defeat]] in late [[2559]], Meridian Station - and the ship at its heart - had been long-abandoned.
