The ''Pillar of Autumn'' was one of few ships which escaped [[The Battle of Reach]]. The ship made a [[slipstream]] jump to the planet [[Threshold]], the location of [[The Forerunner|Forerunner]] [[Installation 04]], which the [[Covenant]] believed was their religious icon "Halo." The remaining crew believed the jump to be random, in order to avoid leading the Covenant to [[Earth]] as per the [[Cole Protocol]]; in actuality, the [[AI]] [[Cortana]] interpreted symbols on a Forerunner artifact into map coordinates. | The ''Pillar of Autumn'' was one of few ships which escaped [[The Battle of Reach]].

After the crash landing on "[[Halo]]" the ship ended up balanced over the side of a cliff. The [[ODST]]s who had escaped the crash landing made a short [[Pelican]] flight to the crash site for supplies and armor in the form of [[Scorpions]] and [[Warthogs]] that were taken back to alpha base, but during the end of the events on Installation 04, the [[Master Chief]] raced to the crash site to try and blow up the PoA and escape the ring-world. | After the crash landing on "[[Halo]]" the ship ended up balanced over the side of a cliff.
