Ephsu is a star system in the Sagittarius Arm of the Milky Way[2] [1], notable as the location of Installation 07. The system contains at least one terrestrial planet[1], which serves as an anchor for Zeta Halo. The system was discovered as Zeta Halo's location by renowned human scientist and historian Doctor Luther Mann after a year of sifting through data he'd discovered during his stay at the ONI Research Facility Trevelyan.[3] There was a research outpost on the Halo established by March 2555[3], which was protected by at least two Halberd-class destroyers.[1]
At some point during the Created conflict, the system was the site of a major battle. The Banished, led by War Chief Escharum invaded the system. A battle both in space and on the installation took place, with the UNSC suffering a major loss, leaving the installation Banished-occupied, and badly damaged.[4]
