- Anders recieves some unexpected readings on an EM band and asks a Hornet squadron en route to Rally Point Baker to investigate. They end up sighting a battallion of Sangheili. Sergeant Forge is assigned to Quadrant 4 to investigate.[3]
- The UNSC Spirit of Fire enters the Epsilon Indi system and arrives back at a glassed and nearly frozen Harvest, encountering Covenant troops led by an Arbiter that are in the process of uncovering a Forerunner relic on the planet.[4]

November
- November 7th: Spartans Kurt-051, Kelly-087 and Fred-104 are dispatched to investigate Construction Platform 966A for suspected Rebel activity. The mission is a ruse and Kurt is abducted by ONI to lead the Spartan III project. Kurt is 'officially' declared MIA.[5]
December
- December 27th: 497 recruits arrive at Camp Currahee on Onyx beginning the Spartan III program under the command of Spartan-051 forming what will later become Alpha Company.[5]

He begins to move his fleet around, trying to intercept the invaders. Ground and ship-to-ship battles begin in earnest, raging throughout the Outer Colonies. During one ground engagement, Human forces capture one of the aliens. Before succumbing to his wounds, interrogators learn that the aliens refer to themselves as "the Covenant" (roughly translated).[7]
