'''Callisto''' is a [[Jovian Moons|moon of Jupiter]] in the [[Sol system]] and a human colony. With little population to speak of, Callisto's purpose to the [[Unified Earth Government]] is primarily [[UNSC Armed Forces|militaristic]] in nature; the moon's several [[UNSC]] [[Military base|bases]] are capable of launching their units and [[UNSC starship|ships]] within an hour's notice.<ref name="enc283">''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]'', Locations: The Sol System, p. 282-283 (2009); p. 294-295 (2011 edition)</ref>
