Basis.
Basis is the largest moon orbiting the planet Threshold in the Soell system.[1] The diameter of this moon is 23,848km (14,818 miles)[2], double that of Earth. The gravity meter is the same though. Installation 04 was positioned between Basis and Threshold.[1] After Installation 04's destruction, the Covenant Heretics built a makeshift camp on Basis, amid the wreckage from the Alpha Halo.[3]
The atmosphere of the moon beholds a sundown-modeled appearance, with hazy clouds and an orange skyline.
Trivia
- On Burial Mounds, you can see wreckage from Installation 04 falling into the atmosphere and burning up.
- Originally, the level The Arbiter was suppose to take place on the moon Basis.
- When Basis is seen in Halo: Combat Evolved, it is just a picture of Mars, tinted blue.
