==History==
==History==
In [[2558#March|March 2558]], [[Fireteam Majestic]] was stationed aboard ''Oaxaca Station'' while the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} was under repair. The night of March 22, [[Gabriel Thorne]] had a nightmare about the [[New Phoenix Incident]] which caused [[Tedra Grant]] to wake him. They discussed Thorne's nightmare and whether he would be going to the re-opening of [[New Phoenix]].<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #7''</ref>

The station is depicted with a docked {{Class|Stalwart|light frigate}} in the seventh issue of ''Halo: Escalation''. This is obviously a result of the comic's artist referencing [[:File:Macstationcairolarge1ki.jpg|an image]] of [[Cairo Station (station)|Cairo Station]] from ''[[Halo 2]]'', which has the frigate {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} docked at the time, and possibly mistaking the ship for a permanent feature of the station.
