Located around 38 light-years from the [[Sol system]], Lambda Serpentis was formerly the location of at least one of the [[human]]ity's [[Human colonies|colonies]], [[Jericho VII]].<ref name="forp">''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', Prologue</ref>

Around September [[2552]], a [[fleet]] of Covenant [[warship]]s was ordered to travel to the Lambda Serpentis system to collect [[tritium]] gas for their reactors in preparation to rendezvous with ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'' at the [[Hawking system]] before embarking on a mass [[slipspace]] jump to [[Earth]] in the [[Sol system]].<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', Chapter 21</ref>

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
