Unlike on [[Installation 04]], where its parent planet [[Threshold]] could be seen quite clearly, especially at night,<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level ''[[The Truth and Reconciliation]]''</ref> on Installation 05, Substance is very difficult to see in the sky of Installation 05. In fact, in none of the locations on this ring seen by [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] forces (namely the [[Control Room (Installation 05)|Control Room]], the [[Library]], and various ruined structures) can the planet be seen. This is due to the Delta Halo's stormy weather conditions caused by a [[Flood]] outbreak that occurred some two centuries before the [[Battle of Installation 05]]. | Unlike on [[Installation 04]], where its parent planet [[Threshold]] could be seen quite clearly, especially at night,<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level ''[[The Truth and Reconciliation]]''</ref> on Installation 05, Substance is very difficult to see in the sky of Installation 05.
