Anodyne Spirit
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The Forerunner Ship was used by the Covenant to power all of High Charity[1]. When the Flood attacked the city, the Prophet of Truth uncouples the ship from High Charity's power grid, and uses it to travel to Earth. The Forerunner ship travels vertically, like a rocket. It is also capable of Slipspace travel.
A ship with enough power to power all of High Charity could likely move faster than any other ship in existence, which is quite impressive for a 100,000+ year old machine.
At the end of Halo 2 Master Chief gets onboard this Forerunner Ship, in his mission to kill the High Prophet of Truth. It is possible there is a Foreunner A.I. in the ship[2]. This ship is very geometric and angular in its design, and is estimated to be about 14 kilometers (8.694 Miles) tall[3].

The ship isn't so much launching, as it is disengaging, uncoupling itself from High Charity's power grid. Stopping Truth, that's all that matters!
