Summary

Eridanus Secundus was an asteroid in the Eridanus Star System. It became the stronghold of the Eridanus Rebels after their insurrection was put down during Operation: TREBUCHET. It was the center of all activity for the rebels, and was serviced by freighters from the nearby Eridanus II. The Asteroid was outfitted with Titanium-A battleplate and other alloys that would deflect both UNSC radar and Covenant sensors. It was effectively a hollowed out rock which was fitted on the inside with improvised corridors and facilities from salvaged vessels. In the center of the asteroid was a city, complete with skyscrapers and other large buildings with streets. It was a great accomplishment for the rebels.

In addition, several facilities were in place around the asteroid that caused outsiders to believe the rebels had nuclear weapons around the facility. A hundred improvised civilian craft served to accomidate the navy surrounding the base.

The Spartans visited this place twice. First time in 2525 they captured the rebel leader Colonel Robert Watts and the second time for repairs before returning to Earth.

In 2552, this asteroid along with all the rebels were presumed destroyed by the Covenant.
