The UNSC Eternity is an Infinity-class supercarrier manufactured by the Special Assembly Plant Concord. It is intended to be the sister ship of the UNSC Infinity, flagship of the UNSC Navy. By late September 2558, the Eternity was still incomplete. At this time, pre-manufactured modules of hull sections and weapon systems intended for the Eternity were instead redirected for a maintenence and overhaul cycle the Infinity underwent over Earth following damage it sustained during the recent Battle of Aktis IV and a prior ambush by the New Colonial Alliance and an ex-Covenant mercenary group.[1]
As of c.2560, Eternity has yet to be completed - leaving Infinity in a class of its own.[8]
Production notes[edit]
While writing the 2025 novel Halo: Empty Throne, author Jeremy Patenaude originally envisioned the main spacecraft featured in the novel to be UNSC Eternity, though this was later changed to the superheavy cruiser UNSC Victory of Samothrace for the final print.[9]

And I might have talked him out of that one. I thought that it would be more interesting to be a different class of ship rather than repeating some of the hero ship problematic elements that sometimes we have with Infinity by just saying "oh, there's another one out there as well"." - Alex Wakeford (Retrieved on Apr 7, 2026)
