The UNSC navigation core, also referred to as the data core, is a human data storage device made by Misriah Armory.[1]
Overview
These cores are installed within UNSC ships in use for interstellar navigation. In an event when a Covenant force is detected, the Cole Protocol is enacted and all navigation modules such as the navigation core would need to be dismantled and its data purged. Should the Covenant obtain a navigation module, it would provide them the necessary information to navigate towards other UNSC colonies and Earth.
When a UNSC ship is scrapped, the ship-breaking facility responsible would usually put such an important piece of equipment into secure storage until they can be purged.[1]
