Halo's main weapon is powered by three phase pulse generators.<ref>''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''</ref> They amplify Halo's signal, and allow it to fire deep into space. The power levels are massive. How they produce such prodigious amounts of energy is unknown. The generators could possibly emit a [[Wikipedia:gamma ray burst|gamma ray burst]]. They are susceptible to close range EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) discharges, and destabilize if they come in contact with an EMP pulse.<ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 268</ref> | ||
