Orbital mine shell
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
An orbital mine shell is an orbital shell comprised of Covenant self-targeting Jaet-pattern plasma torpedos so thick that not even a drop pod could land. Its intention is to isolate a particular planet so as to prevent anyone from ever landing there again. The Covenant were known to use orbital mine shells while exiling rogue members of the Covenant.
