Talk:2552

This should be moved into Timeline or all the events from 2552 be moved here and the page title changed to Timeline 2552. --John117 02:27, 18 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I have thought about doing this for awhile, but never did. I suggest that we make a number of articles for each important year (2517, 2525, 2552, etc.) and put them all into a category: Timeline. At the same time, we could make a "2001 Productions", "2002 Productions", etc to cover the real world history of the developments and releases in the Halo universe. Another idea similar to the one at memory-alpha.org. -ED

Removed
I took out these events which didn't have any dates:

-The UNSC's premier military installation, on planet Reach, fell under a Covenant invasion force.

-Installation 04 was discovered by the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, which had escaped the destruction at Reach. It was destroyed by the Master Chief, who was traveling aboard vessel.

-The First Battle of Earth takes place this year, as a Covenant task force led by their High Prophet of Regret discover that Earth is in fact the human homeworld. While Regret escapes, the city of New Mombasa in former Kenya is destroyed in the process.

-The Second Battle of Earth also takes place this year, with a larger Covenant fleet wearing down the UNSC's defenses over Earth.

Time Machine
Can somebody explain how Operation: FIRST STRIKE happened 6 days before the POA arrived at Halo 04? It had something to do with the events in Halo: First Strike? -- Esemono 14:42, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Halsey hypothesized that the Forerunner Crystal was fated to be taken by them, so it stretched reality to make it happen. --Dragonclaws 18:58, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

=NEW DATE== I added 480 B.C.E., the date of the Battle of Thermopylae. I listed what happened historically, and added sections for the Spartan influence, and parallels that fans believe will happen in Halo 3 on the bottom.

Can you add this to the Timeline?

FIXED
I fixed the dates on the last two (GoO). They are actually Nov 3rd and 4th, not 23rd and 24th (Check the book for proof)

I also reverted the dates from european format to american, since most Halo fans are from America.

mm/dd/yyyy

--User:MLG Cheehwawa That toook ages 2 wright that. Now i cant understand the dates!

Please take a look at 9/13/2552: I thought that Operation First Strike happens after the events of Halo 1. And how the hell is the MC traveling with Linda, Fred and the others (as described in the present article) before the events of Halo 1 occur?


 * I think it's some weird time anomaly or something weird that happens, not sure on the specifics though... g ü é ß Ł ¥ -π é Ґ ∫ ø ñ ¥ -† ħ î <font color="#00ff00">И <font color="#44ff44">g <font color="#99ff99">¥  07:19, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Spartan-117 and the Forerunner ship
So, according to this timeline, the Master Chief is inside the Forerunner ship from October 22 to November 3? That's almost two weeks.

Where did the 11/3 date come from? The date that Dr. Halsey intercepts Cortana's Slipspace message in Ghosts of Onyx? Because if so, the Master Chief might already have reached Earth by that time. -- Poe Ghostal 16:49, 9 April 2007

 * Idk if they said when he got on the ship, but I know that he was still in it on November 4th (the end of the novel). I dont think that he only spent two days on delta Halo either. It had to have taken at least a week to get there for the IAC, so that cuts a large chunk of their potential time out...

Date Revisions
There is a lot of confusion with the events of Halo 2 and GoO. In the book when you read about blue team on Earth it says it is November 3. Obviously the Forerunner ship doesn't arrive November 3. Also the message from Cortana is recieved that same day. She probably sent the message as soon as he started leaving for the ship. The ship probably arrives November 4. Now when it is talking about blue team it talks about In Amber Clad and how it followed the Covenant Capital Ship to Halo Delta two weeks ago. That would put the events of Halo Delta from October 24 to November 3. I think the slipspace jump took three days and the Human assault on the Prophet of Regret took a day. So we're at October 28. The Arbiter couldn't be sent to retrieve the index if he wasn't in the system. He arrived in system on High Charity which came October 28. He probably took about three days to get to the index which puts us at the 31st. He was probably Graveminds captive for a day. They both get sent to High Charity and the Control Room and each of them has two more levels. So two more days = November 3. I am going to change those times if there are no problems with my logic.Dcooleo 20:28, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Halo 2 begins in October 20. When does it end? It's not said anywhere that the battle at the control room happened in October 22... or if it is, please tell source. How long does a slipspace jump from Earth to Delta Halo last anyway? Keyes spoke about "quick jump" (Another problem.. does it refer to travel time or that exiting Slipspace was quick without warning?). If she referred exiting slispace, then the travel time could have easily been a week. But we must also take account that the Dreadnought is a Forerunner vessel and thus probably travels faster, unless it flew slower with rest of the Brutes fleet (did they come too?) and thus this jump would've taken a week too maybe... Maybe the travel times were roughly a week, Delta Halo battle lasted a day or two, and Truth and brutes arrived in November 4? Honestly, we need to work this out and get sources for October 21-24... where are they mentioned or just speculation and guess work? Woorloog 14:05, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Needs more sources?
This article only has 1 source and it's a pretty long article. 2525 is much shorter and it has 20 sources. This article should at least have a couple more sources.User0(contribs)(talk) 16:42, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

End of war.
I'm not quite sure how much time passes before the actual end of the war and the memorial, but you'll notice at the end of halo 3 when the camera gets up close to the Monument (I can't remember exactly what it's called right now) it shows the year as 2553, not 2552, which would mean that at least the last two scenes, the memorial and the one with or without the planet SHOULD be in 2553. Is there something I'm missing or something?Papayaking 15:52, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

But first, did planet scene happen before or after (Or even during) the memorial? Depending, there could be several errors on this page and [].Papayaking 16:01, September 21, 2009 (UTC)
