Basis
Basis is the largest moon orbiting the planet Threshold in the Soell system.[1] The diameter of this moon is 23,848km (14,818 miles).[2] Installation 04 was positioned between Basis and Threshold.[1] After Installation 04's destruction, the Covenant Heretics built a makeshift camp on Basis, amid the wreckage from the Alpha Halo.[3] Basis was the location of the Halo 2 multiplayer level Burial Mounds. The atmosphere beholds a sundown-modeled appearance, with hazy clouds and an orange skyline.
