Installation 07

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

The symbol representing Installation 07.

Installation 07, also known as Zeta Halo, is one of the seven Halo Rings. As stated in Halo: Cryptum, it is the only surviving member of the original twelve Halo rings, which were all 30,000km in diameter. This is why Installation 07 is larger than the other six rings that exist today. Very little else is known about it and it has yet to be directly observed.

In 2552, during the Battle of Installation 05, a signal was sent to this Halo from Installation 05, putting it on standby mode. A readout from Installation 05's Control Room showed that Installation 07 was fully prepared to fire on demand.[1]

A more comprehensive readout was later observed in the Ark during the Battle of the Ark by Thel 'Vadam, SPARTAN-117 and the Prophet of Truth, once again displaying that Installation 07 was on standby mode, waiting to receive the signal to fire.[2] However, SPARTAN-117 deactivated the installation before it could be fired.

Trivia

  • When 05-032 Mendicant Bias launched an assault on the Forerunner Capital this installation suffered severe surface damage. The Forerunners attempted to send the seven Halos still in their possession through a portal to the Ark. However, only Installation 07 made it through before before collapsed. At the Ark, Zeta Halo had to be repaired. This installation's odd surface features as seen on the hologram in the Citadel could have resulted from the damage and attempted repairs.
