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 {{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. | 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.
