From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The Silver Timeline, more formally known under the Halo Silver Timeline, is an alternative timeline of the Halo universe that exists separately to the core canon of the franchise.[1][2]

Production information
The Silver Timeline was named after development codename for the Halo: The Television Series "Silver", Silver is also coincidently the name of the Spartan fireteam in the series.[2]
The Silver timeline was not created to dismiss core canon, but was created to help give space, and to protect both the core canon and the TV show's story, allowing each evolve to best suit the medium that they are on.[1][2]
This timeline is a little different to the core canon of Halo, for reasons that will be explained in Season One of the Halo: The Television Series. It features "familiar" and "new things" to the universe, though returning characters and details may be a little different, such as dates getting pulled closer together. A lot of the content is not part of the core canon.[2]
