The '''Atlas Moons''', as their name suggests, are the [[natural satellite|moons]] of the planet [[Atlas]] in the [[Valence system]].{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}{{Ref/Reuse|HFSC19}}
The '''Atlas Moons''', as their name suggests, were the [[moon]]s of the [[UNSC]] colony [[Atlas]].


==History==
During the [[Human-Covenant War]], these moons were a major part of the [[Siege of the Atlas Moons]]. The UNSC forces fought the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] on the moons. After a short battle, the [[UNSC]] forces, commanded by [[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb]], won on ground and in space, forcing the Covenant to retreat.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', page 179: "John had never worked with the Admiral before, but his accomplishments during the battles for New Constantinople and the Siege of the Atlas Moons were well known."</ref>
The Atlas Moons were colonized by the [[Unified Earth Government]] in [[2450]].{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}
 
During the [[Human-Covenant War]], the moons were attacked in [[2538]]{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} and were the site of the [[Siege of the Atlas Moons]], where UNSC forces fought the [[Covenant]] throughout the territory.{{Ref/Reuse|HFSC19}} Ultimately, the moons were not glassed{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} and [[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb]] was later recognized for his accomplishments during the battle.{{Ref/Reuse|HFSC19}}
