After a year, Mann finally deciphered the records and discovered the location of [[Installation 07]]. Although Mann had always been a respected scientist and one of the top minds in his field, his discovery of Installation 07 launched his academic career as he became known to many scientific publications and organizations. He had been invited to lecture at numerous universities—including the [[University of Oxford]]—and even summoned to [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]] by the [[United Nations Space Command]] to present a detailed report on the methods he had used to locate the Halo. In [[2555]], he was contracted by high-ranking individuals within the UNSC's [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] for Doctor [[Bob Casper]]'s [[Zeta Halo project]] to research the installation with the help of [[Henry Lamb]], a scientist of ONI's [[Xeno-Materials Exploitation Group]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=HitD1}} | On [[2553|November 28, 2553]],{{Ref/Twitter|bsangel|670658429149540352|Jessica Shea|Quote=#TodayInHalo 11/28/2553 Researcher Luther Mann discovers the location of Zeta Halo during a research expedition on Onyx.|D=16|M=3|Y=2021}} Luther was exploring the [[shield world]] [[Trevelyan]] when he found records stored deep within the world's vast information pathways.

On [[2555|March 8, 2555]], while exploring what they believed to be the ring's environment and atmosphere control room, Mann and Lamb discovered a console counting down from approximately three million—a process that would take approximately five standard weeks. After examining the countdown, the two scientists speculated that the installation was counting down to the activation of the entire {{Ref/Reuse|Id=HitD1}} Afterwards, Mann and Lamb reported their findings directly to Casper, who in turn reported the situation to ONI. After verifying that a countdown had appeared on the other Halo installations, Lamb traced the countdown's origins to Installation 07's [[control room]] and concluded that the countdown would indeed lead to the Halo Array's firing. Several days later, Casper met with a council of scientists and high-ranking UNSC officers—including [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]] and [[Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]]. The council agreed that sending a team to [[Installation 00]] to cancel the Array's firing was the best course of action, and Hood contacted the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] for assistance. Mann, Lamb, and numerous other scientists were sent to [[Portal at Voi|the slipspace portal]] at [[Voi]], [[Kenya]] on Earth in an attempt to reactivate the portal that led to the Ark.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=HitD2}} | On [[2555|March 8, 2555]], while exploring what they believed to be the ring's environment and atmosphere control room, Mann and Lamb discovered a console counting down from approximately three million—a process that would take approximately five standard weeks.
