[[X50]]'s huge stretches of ice, the Mirror Flats, were flanked by towering ice cliffs. After ordering their main [[Wraith]] battalion to assault Research Facility Alpha, the [[Covenant]] had quickly deployed [[Phantoms]] to set up supporting artillery along the eastern cliff wall. With this artillery operational, a [[UNSC]] counter-offensive would be suicide. This rendered Alpha facility a vulnerable target.

[[Sarah Palmer|Spartan Palmer]] and a detachment of Marines were sent to infiltrate the Covenant positions and destroy the plasma artillery. Navigating the maze of cracks covering Mirror Mantle Ridge would have been an insurmountable challenge for most soldiers, but Palmer was able to use the terrain to her advantage and surprise the artillery positions. Here victory was instrumental in giving Alpha facility a fighting chance.
