In [[2552]], COALMINER detected an intrusion into the the [[ONI]] database at [[Reach]]. While COALMINER failed to identify the intruder, the intrusion threatened to compromise HYPODERMIC. COALMINER informed SURGEON of the breach and deleted the {{UNSCShip|Circumference}} from [[Reach Station Gamma]]'s database to minimize the damage.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', pages 281-282</ref>

This later caused difficulties during the [[Fall of Reach]] as it prevented the [[AI]] [[Doppler]] from erasing the ''Circumference'''s NAV database as per the [[Cole Protocol]]. A [[SPARTAN-II]] team had to deploy to destroy the ship and suffered casualties in the process. This may, however, have effectively saved John 117 and humanity, as [[John 117]] may have died or been trapped on the planet, and would not have taken part in the destruction of [[Installation 04]]. This may have also saved the lives of many other notable characters, such as [[Avery Junior Johnson|Sergeant Johnson]] and [[Cortana]].
