With no ability to enter [[Slipstream Space]], and the journey back to UNSC space likely to take years, if not decades, the ''Spirit of Fire's'' crew went into [[Cryo-chamber|cryo-storage]]. The UNSC [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] declared the ''Spirit'' and crew to be [[Missing In Action]]. In [[2534]], the ''Spirit of Fire'' was declared to be "lost with all hands" by the UNSC.
