-The '''Stealth Tactical Aerial Reconnaissance Satellte''', or '''STARS''' for short, is a piece of equipment used by the [[UNSC]] during offensive combat operations. STARS are are baseball sized satellites that orbit one hundred kilometers over combat situations.
+{{Status|Canon}}
-STARS are extremely useful; they relay topgraphy information, enemy locations, and allied locations and equipment positions to the [[HUD]] of allied units in range. They also broadcast orders for individual units. STARS help the UNSC military coordinate even complex operations easily and under stealth conditions, where even [[COM]] chatter can give away unit positions.

+==Summary==
-[[Category:Technology]]
+STARS are baseball-sized satellites that remain in orbit above combat situations to provide in-field unmanned tactical command and to relay mission results and statistics to the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] post-mission. They are capable of mapping large areas and providing real time topographical intelligence.{{Ref/Reuse|goo}} It is likely that STARS are used exclusively by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] because of their advanced nature and specific function.
+==Functions==
+STARS are extremely useful; they covertly relay communications, topography information, enemy locations, and allied locations and equipment positions to the [[heads-up display]] of allied units in range. Furthermore, channels like TEAMBIO are relayed across STARS. They also broadcast orders for individual units. STARS help the [[UNSC]] military coordinate even complex operations easily and under stealth conditions, where even [[COM]] chatter can give away unit positions.{{Ref/Reuse|goo}}
+==Usage==
+They were first seen in use in the [[Operation: TORPEDO|Battle of Pegasi Delta]], and operated in conjunction with [[SPARTAN-III]] commandos.
+However, as per [[Franklin Mendez]], "machines break", and STARS was accredited for the over 99% fatality rate of [[Beta Company]] in the Battle of Pegasi Delta, where STARS failed to recognize the looming presence of no less than seven [[Covenant Cruiser]]s over the Covenant tritium factory there. This led to a massive [[Type-31 Seraph]] [[plasma charge]] bombardment and [[pulse laser]] sterilization of the SPARTAN-IIIs. The hypothesis held by Spartan [[Tom-B292]] at the time of the disaster was that the STARS mistook the seven cruisers as part of the factory.
