 {{main|Battle of Reach}}
-By 2552, the Covenant had destroyed many of Humanity's Inner Colonies. In a move of desperation, UNSC orders a secret plan to capture a Covenant ship using a SPARTAN task force and find the coordinates of their home planet. All of the SPARTANs except three are chosen for this mission, and, led by the Master Chief, board a specially outfitted ship known as the ''UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn'' (under the command of [[Captain Jacob Keyes]]). This plan, however, is interrupted when the Covenant launch a surprise attack on the fortress world of Reach.

This plan, however, is interrupted when the Covenant launch a surprise attack on the fortress world of Reach.
 During this battle, Reach is overrun and the human fleet is obliterated. Worse still, the Master Chief thinks that all of the SPARTANs but himself are killed on the surface of the planet. The (supposedly) last remaining SPARTAN, the Master Chief, escapes with the ''Pillar of Autumn''. In accordance with the [[Cole Protocol]], the ''Autumn'' makes a blind Slipspace jump, and emerges in the vicinity of an unexplored and remarkable world.
