This unidentified agricultural ship was utilized by the Covenant as a research vessel during the Human-Covenant War.[2][3] The Minister of Harmony was stationed aboard this vessel by 2551.[1][2]

Specifications[edit]

Design details[edit]

The agricultural ship has a circular fore section intersected with a large triangular protrusion extending ventrally. Within the aft section is a large habitat dome similar to those found on Mjern-pattern agricultural support ships. The aft section consists of a rounded, elongated tail which tapers toward its middle.[1]

Propulsion[edit]

For propulsion, the vessel features at least four pairs of repulsor engines.[1]

Armament[edit]

The ship possesses multiple banks of plasma cannons along its sides, as well as several turreted plasma cannons on its dorsal surface for point defense.[1]

Operational history[edit]

Harmony[edit]

During the Human-Covenant War, the Minister of Harmony utilized this agricultural vessel to perform various bizarre experiments.[2]

Operation: METEORITE[edit]

In 2551, this vessel was stationed in orbit over the recently-glassed human colony of Promise. Meanwhile, the UNSC initiated Operation: METEORITE with the objective of boarding the research vessel and obtaining data that might lead to High Charity.[2] During the operation, ORION supersoldier Avery Johnson and Spartan-II Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 infiltrated the vessel utilizing a captured Spirit, encountering the Minister of Harmony and resistance from the Covenant crew. The fighting took Johnson and John-117 throughout the ship's corridors, research facilities, and its habitat dome, liberating captured marines in the process. At some point, John-117 captured a Seraph and took the fight to the exterior of the vessel, destroying its plasma cannons and encountering Elsedda-pattern Banshees.[1]
