One example of the differences between speeds is comparing the Covenant cruiser ''"[[Ascendant Justice]]"'' with the UNSC [[Halcyon-class cruiser]] {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}. It took several weeks for the ''Pillar of Autumn'' to get from [[Reach]] to [[Installation 04]], yet the ''Ascendant Justice'' could get from Installation 04 to Reach within thirteen hours from the occupants' frame of reference.

Though the Covenant use a modified version of Forerunner systems, true unaltered [[Forerunner]] slipspace technology has only been observed in the form of [[The Artifact|the portal]] transporting UNSC and Covenant vessels from [[Earth]] to [[The Ark]], transporting them thousands of light years almost instantaneously. Additionally, while a Covenant assault carrier could reach Delta Halo from Earth in thirteen days, the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] took only five days to travel the same distance. Given the fact that Covenant understanding of Forerunner technology is comparatively primitive, the ship may have been capable of much higher velocities.
