The sector is the location of an [[unidentified moon (Sub-sector 35)|unidentified moon]] which houses the [[Forerunner]] [[Line Installation 1-4]]. This makes it a dangerous area to traverse, even in [[Slipstream space|Slipspace]], as the Installation's defense systems would destroy any ships passing nearby.<ref name="Bloodline">'''[[Halo: Blood Line]]''', ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 1|Issue 1]]''</ref> | ||

In ancient history, the Forerunners built the Line Installation to the sector as a defense weapon and a [[Flood]] research facility. Over the course of history, dozens of ships passing through the sector had crash-landed on the moon, leaving its surface littered with wreckage. | In ancient history, the Forerunners built the Line Installation to the sector as a defense weapon and a [[The Flood|Flood]] research facility.

Prior to jump into Slipspace, both ships received unusual burst transmissions with a Pi-constant baseline. The messages were unclear, seemingly depicting various celestial objects, but were apparently warning of a significant [[astrogation]] hazard in the sector. While in Slipspace, both the human and the Covenant ship were shot down by the Line Installation's energy weapon. They dropped out of Slipspace and crash-landed on the unknown moon.<ref name="Bloodline"/> | Prior to jump into Slipspace, both ships received unusual burst transmissions with a Pi-constant baseline.
