==Service history==
In [[2517]], [[Jacob Keyes]] was assigned to the ''Magellan'' as his first assignment prior to graduating [[Luna OCS Academy]].

At some point between [[2525]] and [[2531]], the ''Magellan''{{'}}s [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] was damaged and needed to be repaired. The procedure was extremely dangerous because such drives were not meant to be taken apart once they went active. SPARTAN [[Frederic-104]] witnessed the repair.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Ghosts of Onyx|Chapter=3}}
