Macintosh[1] is the name given to a planet in the Zeta Doradus system by the UNSC that was once part of the Forerunner ecumene.
History
During the time of the Forerunners, Macintosh was a part of their ecumene. It possessed an installation that served as the home port to a Forerunner warship of an unknown class.[1]
In 2553, when the shield world Sarcophagus was brought out of its slipspace bubble, Macintosh and three other planets in the Zeta Doradus system fell within its orbit.[2] Macintosh ended up falling into the position of the third planet orbiting the shield world's artificial star.[1]
In 2558, Sarcophagus was returned to its slipspace bubble during the Second Onyx conflict for protection from the Created.[3] When the shield world returned to slipspace, it took with it the four planets that had been orbiting Sarcophagus in real space, including Macintosh. After Dural 'Mdama returned to the Servants of the Abiding Truth, the Huragok Even Keel suggested Dural move his base to Macintosh. Keel admitted that the Forerunner warship had not been moved for many millennia and may require work to restore it to its full use, but the ship was habitable and accessible through Sarcophagus' portal network. After Keel assured him that there were also plenty of supplies and armaments, Dural chose to move the Servants to Macintosh and the ship.[4]
