Template Planet

Someone needs to fix that template at the top of the page. I have no idea how to do so. SPARTAN-118

Sources

First of all, the sources should be inline, not just stuck at the bottom. Second, if you're using Wikipedia as a source, just copy the necessary entries from Wikipedia's source list. Third, don't link to the French Wikipedia on the English Halopedia.User0^{(contribs)(talk)} 15:36, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Epsilon Eridani C

Note: This post was made back when someone speculated Reach to be the real-world exoplanet Epsolin Eridani c.

Do we have a confirmation if ε Eridani C is actually the second planet in the system? Even if it's the second one discovered by current means, we don't know if there's any planets in between. Isn't this more or less a conjecture or an interesting piece of trivia more fitting for the trivia section? Also according to this, Epsilon Eridani C is 37 AU away from the star. That's way beyond the habitable zone (Earth is 1 AU away from Sol) Also it has an orbital period of 280 years as opposed to 390 days of Reach. So, very unlikely to be the same planet.--Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 23:42, December 28, 2009 (UTC)

Damn, could you imagine that? "Oh look sonny, it's your Birthminute" Yup, getting old... RIP johnny, 1/9/3000 - 1/9/3000, die of old age" Wow. DarkbelowHGR CommbandD 12:21, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

Gas giant?

I'm quite confused about the gas giant seen near Reach. It's so close that it looks like Reach could be one of its moons, but there's no way that can be right, can it?--FluffyEmoPenguin 16:01, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

It looks more like the object you described as a gas giant is one of Reach's moons. It has rings like the larger moon and as you said, it's too close to Reach to be a separate planet. The moon seems to have a gaseous atmosphere, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's a gas giant. Though I'm not sure if it's possible for something that small to have an atmosphere. Still, it's impossible for a gas giant to be that close to Reach so I guess the best explanation is that the larger moon has an atmosphere of some sort. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 16:09, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

True, I never thought of that. Seems odd that a moon could have rings like that. It really plays tricks on the mind because it makes it look like Reach is a moon to a gas giant. (And no mention of my Over 9,000 referance?)--FluffyEmoPenguin 16:14, June 15, 2010 (UTC)
