Democritus

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Slipstream Space Monitoring Station Democritus is a remote scanning outpost located in the Sol system, in orbit around Pluto.[1]

Service history

Battle of Earth

Throughout the invasion of Sol by the Covenant in late 2552, Democritus went untouched and remained operational, watching slipspace for incoming signals. On November 3, the station picked up a message sent from Cortana using Forerunner technology and another signal piggybacked on it by Doctor Catherine Halsey.[1]

Trivia

The station was likely named after the Greek philosopher and astronomer of the same name.
