Rather than being a superweapon, like the [[Halo Array|Halo's]], the [[Ark]] functions as both a control center for the entire array and as a construction facility for Halo's, using the planetoid to provide metals, gases, elements and other resources needed for reconstruction. After the construction is complete, the [[Halo Array|Halo]] is transported to the site of its predecessor via a slipspace portal. | Rather than being a superweapon, like the [[Halo Array|Halo's]], the [[Ark]] functions as both a control center for the entire array and as a construction facility for Halo's, using the planetoid to provide metals, gases, elements and other resources needed for reconstruction.

The Forerunners had the ability to make Artificial Stars when necessary. The Ark was not near any stars or suns so the Forerunners had to make one to light and provide energy for the arks foliage to help keep it habitable. The fans around the edge and behind the star may help to intensify the light and energy to light up the Ark, also the curvature of the Arks "Arms" may also help evenly distribute the light and energy across the surface. | |||
