Circumstance is a human Inner Colony planet in the Epsilon Eridani system, famous for its universities and courts of justice.[2] Circumstance, just after Reach and Tribute, was one of the first planets colonized in the system by the Unified Earth Government.[3] One of the universities on the planet was Koletre-Browning University, which Doctor Catherine Halsey attended.[4] When the Epsilon Eridani system was invaded by the Covenant in the summer of 2552, most of the population centers on Circumstance were destroyed.[5] The planet was likely glassed by the Covenant at some point during the invasion.[1]

Kurt Trevelyan was born in the city of Mira on Circumstance in 2511, eventually growing up in Kuiper, before being abducted to the SPARTAN-II program as Kurt-051.[6] Carlo Hoya and his family immigrated to the planet after his homeworld of Asmara was glassed by the Covenant.[7]

Trivia

In the Halo: Reach live-action short Spaceport, Circumstance is a destination listed at the Manassas Spaceport.
