On April 2525, the vessel went on patrol in the [[Lambda Serpentis system]]. Unknown to most of the crew, [[Spartan-II]]s were onboard the ''Atlas'' to recover from their [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|augmentations]] in the microgravity conditions and bury their dead.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 60''</ref>

*''Atlas''<nowiki>'</nowiki> appearance changes between the comic and animated adaptations of ''The Fall of Reach''. The original design vaguely resembles the {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}}. In contrast, the version seen in the animated series resembles the ''Epoch''-class heavy carrier, albeit with several elements rearranged (such as the thrusters being inverted) or absent (such as the bridge section). According to [[343 Industries]] writer [[Jeff Easterling]], the ship is canonically an ''Epoch''-class carrier, with her divergent appearances in visual media due to artistic license.{{Ref/Reuse|CF100}}
