From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Template:Ratings Template:Planet

Tantalus is a Human colony located in the Epsilon Eridani system.[1] Not much is known about the colony, except that during the Fall of Reach, Admiral Roland Freemont ordered all UNSC ships from Tantalus to aid in the defense of Reach.[2]

Trivia

  • The colony is likely named after a Tantalus of Greek mythology, or the city that bore his name.
  • In the Halo: Reach live-action short "Remember Reach", Tantalus is a destination listed at the Manassas Spaceport.
