'''UNSC ''Tharsis''''' was a [[UNSC | The '''UNSC ''Tharsis''''' was a [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Destroyer|destroyer]]. ''Tharsis'' saw action at the [[Battle of Reach]] where it was heavily damaged,<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 207''</ref> although one of its fusion reactors remained intact. The [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] moved the destroyer's hulk to the "graveyard" they established over [[Reach]]'s northern pole. | ||
When the UNSC-controlled ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' returned to Reach following the [[Battle of Installation 04]], [[Cortana]] considered merging the ''Tharsis'' with the captured Covenant vessel. However, ultimately the frigate {{UNSCShip|Gettysburg}} was selected based on that ship's better condition and intact [[MAC]] gun. It is unknown why Cortana chose ''Gettysburg'' rather than ''Tharsis'' since the book fails to list any traits of the ''Tharsis'' past the fact that it was a destroyer. | |||
