| '''CAA ''Skidbladnir''''' was a {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}} operated by the [[Colonial Administration Authority]] used to colonize the [[human]] [[Outer Colony]] planet of [[Harvest]]. Its shipboard [[artificial intelligence]] was [[Loki]].{{Ref/Reuse|CH11}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc09}}

| ==History==
| | '''UNSC ''Skidbladnir''''' was a {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}} used to colonize the [[human]] [[Outer Colony]] planet of [[Harvest]]. Its shipboard [[artificial intelligence]] was [[Loki]].{{Ref/Reuse|ch183}}{{Ref/Reuse|enc79}} |
| Once the initial colony on Harvest was established in [[2468]],{{Ref/Reuse|timeline}} ''Skidbladnir'' remained in orbit for more than a year to assist in the construction of the basic infrastructure for the colony. Once the task was completed, the colony ship landed on the planet's surface and was scrapped for materials. ''Skidbladnir''{{'}}s power plant and engine were then used to power the capital city of [[Utgard]], despite the CAA's concerns over the engine's capabilities.{{Ref/Reuse|CH11}}

|
| After UNSC ''Skidbladnir'' was scrapped, Loki was converted into [[Mack]], the [[smart AI]] in charge of agriculture on Harvest.{{Ref/Reuse|CH11}}

| ==Production notes==
| | After UNSC ''Skidbladnir'' was scrapped, Loki was converted into [[Mack]], the [[smart AI]] in charge of agriculture on Harvest.{{Ref/Reuse|ch183}} |
| In several early sources, notable the [[Archive:Halowars.com/Timeline|''Halo Wars'' launch timeline]]{{Ref/Reuse|timeline}} and the 2009 ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)|Halo Encyclopedia]]'',{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc09|Enc09|Page=261}}{{Ref/Book|Enc11|Page=273}} the ship is erroneously referred to as "UNSC ''Skidbladnir''" with the UNSC's hull prefix. However, as noted in ''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', the ship and the nascent Harvest colony were operated by the [[Colonial Authority]].{{Ref/Reuse|CH11}} As such, the ship's prefix should be CAA, as observed with other colony ships such as {{CAAShip|First Reverie}}. The UNSC, as a military organisation not yet active in the Outer Colonies at the time of Harvest's colonisation, would have little to do with the operation of such a ship. As such, this page intentionally ignores the UNSC hull prefix in favour of that implied by the original text.
