Central Hub



The Central Hub is the central disk structure of Installation 00.

Topography
In the center of the Hub, is the Strip Mining Moon. Just outside of that was the trench where Halos were made.

There are 12 Refugia on the Central Hub. One of the Refugias near the Halo trench, were Taiga forests and snowy mountains. Within the snowy mountain region existed the Citadel.

Human-Covenant war
In 2552, John-117 destroyed Installation 04. In response, Installation 00 began construction of a replacement, Installation 08.

Several months later, the UNSC, Fleet of Retribution, and the Covenant traveled through a slipspace portal. In the ensuing battle, the UNSC and Fleet of Retribution cornered the Prophet of Truth at the Citadel. After the reveal of Installation 08, John and Thel 'Vadam flew to and activated the new installation. Installation 08 detonated right above the Central Hub and destroyed itself.

Post-war
Following the loss of Installation 08, another ring, designed to replace both the original 04 and 08, was created.

The arrived at Installation 00 in 2559 and began operations against the Banished. As this struggle continued, the forces of the Spirit of Fire eventually took control and defended a Particle Cannon at the border of the South Spire and the Central Hub.
