The interior of the installation is hollow and features a vast [[Terraforming|terraformed]] surface and a miniature [[Astroengineering|artificial star]]. At least one such installation, [[Trove]], had an interior diameter of 2,873 kilometers (1,787 miles).{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}{{Ref/Level|Id=Escape|HW|[[Escape (Halo Wars level)|Escape]]}}<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/locations/gallery/shield-world/073e5c8b-63bf-4fdc-a46d-6150a0026201 ''Halo Waypoint'': ''Shield World''] (defunct, backup on [https://web.archive.org/web/20111008060749/http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/locations/gallery/shield-world/073e5c8b-63bf-4fdc-a46d-6150a0026201 Archive.org])</ref> | ||
