During the [[Fall of Reach]] in [[2552]], remembering an accident involving an improperly-mounted slipspace drive, [[Kat-B320]] of [[SPARTAN programs|SPARTAN]] [[Noble Team]] devised a plan to use the {{UNSCShip|Savannah}}'s slipspace drive as an improvised "bomb" to destroy the [[Covenant supercarrier]] ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'', in lieu of [[nuclear weapon]]ry, which was unavailable at the time. The bomb was transported by a [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier|Pelican]] into the hangar bay of the [[SDV-class heavy corvette|Covenant corvette]] ''[[Ardent Prayer]]'', which was then hijacked and set on a refueling track with the supercarrier. The activation timer for the "bomb" was damaged in a firefight, so [[Jorge-052]] stayed behind to activate it manually, while [[SPARTAN-B312]] was forced out of the ship. When the slipspace drive was activated, a massive slipspace rupture was created, which caused ''Ardent Prayer'', along with a large portion of ''Long Night of Solace'', to be teleported into oblivion. With its entire midsection missing, the remains of ''Long Night of Solace'' crashed onto the surface of the planet [[Reach]].<ref name="reach"/> | During the [[Fall of Reach]] in [[2552]], remembering an accident involving an improperly-mounted slipspace drive, [[Kat-B320]] of [[SPARTAN programs|SPARTAN]] [[Noble Team]] devised a plan to use the {{UNSCShip|Savannah}}'s slipspace drive as an improvised "bomb" to destroy the [[Covenant supercarrier]] ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'', in lieu of [[nuclear weapon]]ry, which was unavailable at the time.
