*'''0720 Hours:''' The Covenant destroys ODG Facility A-331 by aerial bombardment, though some Spartans escape. The surviving MAC guns are now offline and are quickly destroyed by plasma torpedoes. Remaining UNSC vessels have no choice but to retreat. The Covenant warships are split into two groups: five-ship teams that hunt down the surviving UNSC vessels and a group of ships that align themselves in formation and begin to glass Reach. | *'''0720 Hours:''' The Covenant destroys ODG Facility A-331 by aerial bombardment, though some Spartans escape.

*'''1652 hours''': The remainder of [[Noble Team]] consisting of Carter-A259, Emile-A239, and SPARTAN-B312 head to the Asźod ship breaking yards to deliver a fragment of Cortana, which holds important navigation data, to the ''Pillar of Autumn''. Carter rams his Pelican into a Scarab, allowing the remaining parts of Noble Team to pass. Emile and SPARTAN-B312 head to platform D in the ship breaking yards to meet with Captain Keyes and to deliver Cortana over. Emile dies when he is stabbed by a Covenant Zealot wielding an Energy Sword. SPARTAN-B312 successfully delivers the package to the ''Autumn'' and allows the vessel to escape by destroying an incoming Covenant battlecruiser using a mass driver. The ''Pillar of Autumn'', pursued by a dozen Covenant vessels, retreats from the system, heading for [[Installation 04]].<ref name="hrpoa"/> | *'''1652 hours''': The remainder of [[Noble Team]] consisting of Carter-A259, Emile-A239, and SPARTAN-B312 head to the Asźod ship breaking yards to deliver a fragment of Cortana, which holds important navigation data, to the ''Pillar of Autumn''.
