Installation 05

Summary

The Forerunner structure Installation 05, otherwise known as Delta Halo, partially activating.

Installation 05 or Delta Halo is where most of Halo 2 occurs. It's pretty much the same as Installation 04 with regards to the terrain. It is also where the Flood puppetmaster Gravemind resides. The Monitor of this Installation is 2401 Penitent Tangent. Like all other Installations this is also used to contain Flood. At the end of Halo 2, Tartarus almost activates this Installation but Sergeant Avery Johnson and the Arbiter kill him before he succeeds. A beacon was sent from this Installation to the Ark, moving all installations (Halos) to stand by status. At the end 343 Guilty Spark explains to Sgt. Jonhson and Commander Keyes that the Halos can be remotely activated from the Ark, which possibly could be on Earth.
