Where you looking for the Control Room of Installation 04?

"Where the Councilors were meant to watch the consecration of the Icon: the start of the Great Journey."
Rtas 'Vadumee
The Control Room's exterior.

Installation 05's Control Room was the site that controlled all of the Installation's operations. The Control Room is located on an island off the coast of a larger island in the middle of a large sea. There is also a noticeable design difference from Installation 04's control room, in there being three levels to it.[1]

History

Main article: Battle of Installation 05

Prompted by the Prophet of Truth, Tartarus brought 343 Guilty Spark and Lieutenant Commander Miranda Keyes to the control room in order to activate the ring, initiating the Great Journey. Before he could force Keyes to activate the panel, however, the Arbiter arrived, teaming up with Sergeant Major Johnson and other Sangheili troops.

Despite the Arbiter's attempt to convince Tartarus to change his mind, Tartarus forced the Index into the panel, activating the primary firing systems. A battle began between the Sangheili and the Jiralhanae, which ended after Tartarus and his troops died and Keyes deactivated the ring.[1]

Trivia

Bungie humorously referred to the multiple-leveled structure at the center of the control room as the "Birthday cake of doom".[2]
