==History== | |||
{{Main|Battle of Chi Ceti}} | |||
On [[2525#November|November 27, 2525]], the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] vessel ''[[Unrelenting]]'' arrived in the Chi Ceti system. The [[UNSC frigate|frigate]] {{UNSCship|Commonwealth}} drove off the former vessel, though both ships were heavily damaged. ''Commonwealth'' remained in orbit as the [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] received their MJOLNIR armor. Later that day, the Spartans were deployed from the frigate toward a hole that had been blasted into ''Unrelenting'''s hull in an attempt to destroy the vessel from within. Only three Spartans, [[John-117]], [[Kelly-087]], and [[Samuel-034]], arrived at the enemy vessel, which they then boarded. Shortly thereafter, Samuel's armor was damaged, leaving him unable to return to the ''Commonwealth''. He stayed behind and detonated an [[ANVIL-II Air-to-Surface Missile|ANVIL-II missile]], killing himself and destroying ''Unrelenting''. | |||
When the planet was compromised by the Covenant, the Damascus Testing Facility and a nearby [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] training center were abandoned. As these were the only known [[human]] installations on the planet, it is unlikely that the planet was [[Glassing|glassed]]. | |||
