The [[Forerunners]] created large and sizable '''Anti-Gravity Gondolas''', that travel by utilizing anti-gravity technology to ferry individuals over long and extensive distances, that are otherwise difficult to traverse.<ref name="regret">''[[Halo 2]], level [[Regret (Level)|Regret'']]</ref><ref name="zone">''[[Halo 2]], level [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]]''</ref>
 
==Types==
So far, two types of Gondolas have been discovered throughout the [[Halo Array|Halos]], the first near the [[Temple (Installation 05)|Temple]], (the ''Temple Gondola'') and the second near the [[Library]], (the ''Library Gondola''). Anti-Gravity Gondolas have appeared only on [[Installation 05]].
 
The smaller Temple Gondolas and underwater [[Lift|elevators]] are also the only way to reach [[Prophet of Regret|Regret]]'s temple. These Gondolas use anti-gravity "tethers" below and above it. The larger Library Gondolas and the [[Teleportation Grid]] are the only way to reach Installation 05's [[Library]].<ref name="regret"/><ref name="zone"/>
 
==Gameplay==
The Temple Gondola is traveled upon in the level [[Regret (Level)|Regret]], in ''[[Halo 2]]''. It can be started by the player character [[John-117|Master Chief]], using its switch. It cannot be stopped manually, though it automatically stops when docking to either boarding platform. A glitch known as the "Gondola Grunt" exists, wherein trapping a [[Unggoy|Grunt]] on the second Gondola, its AI dramatically changes tactics and personalities.<ref name="regret"/>
 
The Library Gondola is traveled upon in the level [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]], in ''Halo 2''. It is started automatically by the player character [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]], in a cutscene. It automatically stops when docking to either docking station.<ref name="zone"/>
