==Service history==
In [[2517]], [[Captain Keyes|Jacob Keyes]] was assigned to the ''Magellan'' as his first assignment prior to graduating [[Luna OCS Academy]]. Those orders were rescinded when he was sent to help [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]] study the [[Spartan-II]] children.<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], page 19</ref>
In [[2517]], [[Jacob Keyes]] was assigned to the ''Magellan'' as his first assignment prior to graduating [[Luna OCS Academy]]. Those orders were rescinded when he was sent to help Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] study the candidates for the [[SPARTAN-II Program]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=forchapt1|Halo: The Fall of Reach|Chapter=1}} He would have those orders reinstated after helping Dr. Halsey.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: The Fall of Reach|Chapter=3}}


At some point between [[2525]] and [[2531]], the ''Magellan''{{'}}s [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] was damaged and needed to be repaired. The procedure was extremely dangerous because such drives were not meant to be taken apart once they went active. SPARTAN [[Frederic-104]] witnessed the repair.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Ghosts of Onyx|Chapter=3}}
Some time between [[2525]] and [[2531]], the ''Magellan'''s [[Shaw-Fujikawa Slipspace Drive]] was damaged and needed to be repaired. The procedure was extremely dangerous because such drives were not meant to be taken apart once they went active. [[Spartan-104]], Fred, witnessed the repair.<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], Page 53</ref>


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
The name likely comes from [[Wikipedia:Ferdinand Magellan|Ferdinand Magellan]], an explorer who led a journey around the world.
*Magellan was the name of a person who travelled around the world in hopes of proving that the it is round, which, at the time, wasn't a plausible idea.
