Upon arriving, the ''Odyssey'' was deconstructed into [[terraforming]] installations and a research colony of 5,000 scientists and workers. Soon more people arrived. By [[2390]], the first wave of terraforming was done and a second major colonization effort began. The UNSC transitioned much of its administrative and technical infrastructure to the system, which was soon followed by corporate investments. This included the building of the planet's first [[space elevator]] at [[Veszprém]]. More space elevators would be built across Reach's equatorial band.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | Upon arriving, the ''Odyssey'' was deconstructed into [[terraforming]] installations and a research colony of 5,000 scientists and workers.
