===Human-Covenant war=== | |||
During the [[Human-Covenant War]], [[Covenant fleet|fleets]] of the [[Covenant]] arrived at Ruthersburg and eradicated the planet's small population.{{Ref/Reuse|CF}} Just as the Covenant began to [[Glassing|glass]] Ruthersburg in [[2548]],{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} a section of the planet's fragile mantle buckled, tearing the only inhabitable continent apart in a rippling series of pyroclastic explosions.{{Ref/Reuse|CF}} | |||
Ruthersburg is a destination that could be reached from the [[Manassas Spaceport]] in [[2552|Mid-2552]].<ref>''[[Remember Reach]]'', [[Spaceport (Remember Reach)|Spaceport]]</ref> | |||
===Post-war=== | |||
The barren husk that remained would have remained a footnote in history were it not for [[slipstream space]] routes discovered after the Covenant War, which placed Ruthersburg in a spur of the new [[Sol system|Sol]]-[[Epsilon Eridani system|Epsilon Eridani]] trade route. Megacorporations quickly sited resource extraction and refining operations on the planet's ruined surface dedicated to feeding metals and rare earths to shipyards building the next generation of [[UNSC Navy]] vessels above [[Mars]] and [[Tribute]].{{Ref/Reuse|CF}} | |||

One of the megacorporations that set up at least one mining site on the planet was the [[Liang-Dortmund Corporation]].{{Ref/Map|H5G|[[Molten]]}} | |||
