==Summary==
==Summary==
[[Fireteam Crimson]] has taken the Didact's Gift to Galileo Base where it is being examined when [[Robert Dalton]] detects incoming Phantoms. Crimson is forced to fight off the attackers because the base's defenses have been deactivated. One of the scientists chose to reroute power from the defenses to run a mini-reactor. After re-activating the defenses Crimson is able to repel the Covenant attackers, only to be informed that they must restore power to the reactor or its shielding will fail and the resulting meltdown will destroy Galileo Base. After reactivating the reactor Crimson is immediately besieged by Prometheans. Meanwhile, [[Commander]] [[Sarah Palmer]] orders [[Fireteam Majestic]] to Galileo to retrieve the Didact's Gift and escort it to ''Infinity''. After the base is cleared of hostiles, Majestic arrives to retrieve the asset.
