In [[2556]], workers [[Imbrium Machine Complex]] and [[BXR Mining Corporation]] based out of [[Elvie]]—a habitat and corporate campus on [[LV-31]], a nearby asteroid—discovered the buried Forerunner starship at Site 22. To access the find, BXR Mining Corporation bored a hole through the asteroid's gray-brown crust using [[EM-120 auger]]s. At this point, it was up to the [[IMC hazmat corps]] to investigate further. Upon approach, the vessel opened to admit the hazmat team.

Upon approach, the vessel opened to admit the hazmat team. Shortly after entering the Forerunner vessel, the team was attacked by the Flood, quickly turning them into [[Flood attacker form|attacker form]]s and escaping the mouth of the newly-formed cave leading the ship. From there, the Flood began to infect other IMC and BXR personnel at the site.{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}} | ||
Upon losing contact with the ground teams and receiving confirmation of the Flood's presence at Site 22, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Pedro Alvarez]] of the {{UNSCShip|Saturn}} decided to deploy [[Fireteam Leviathan]], a [[Spartan]] [[Flood containment Fireteam|Flood containment unit]], to clear out the infestation rather than simply destroying the site from orbit.

Alvarez cited that [[UNSC Home Fleet]]'s need for the site's resources and the asteroid's proximity to the inhabited LV-31 as reason enough to not risk destroying the asteroid with [[Shiva-class nuclear missile]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}} | ||
Despite the team being | Despite the team being back up by [[Cyclops]] and [[Hellbringers]],{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}} the Spartans ultimately fell to the parasite, forcing Captain Alvarez to declare the [[CORRUPTER]] and [[Emergency Contact Protocol Upsilon|UPSILON]] protocols; all personnel on-site were given seven minutes to evacuate before [[Orbital bombardment|bombardment]] from the ship's weapons commenced.{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}}{{Ref/Site|Id=S4Intel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/infection-intel|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Infection Intel|D=11|M=10|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel}} Only a handful of [[dropship]]s had managed to flee Site 22 before it was obliterated. However, at least one attacker form managed to board a [[Condor]] before the Shiva missiles detonated, presumably escaping prior to Site 22's destruction.{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}} | ||
