Unlike any other ship in the fleet, the station was built of two scrapped repair stations, each a square kilometer of plate, scaffolding, and cargo trams. The two plates had been connected to make an off-center "sandwich", which had become known to certain naval officers as 'the ugliest thing to ever float in zero-gee'. Within, a state of the art hospital was constructed. In [[2495]], the UNSC took control of the station and added fusion reactors and a [[Shaw-Fujikawa Slipspace Drive]], turning ''Hopeful'' into the largest mobile battlefield hospital in history. It had the facilities, doctors, and supplies to treat thousands of critically ill patients at a time. With the horrors of the [[Human-Covenant War]] taking their toll on the UNSC forces, the ''Hopeful'' was always busy. <ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], Page 97</ref> | Unlike any other ship in the fleet, the station was built of two scrapped repair stations, each a square kilometer of plate, scaffolding, and cargo trams.

In [[2551]], the [[Spartan-III]] [[Gamma Company]] underwent their physical augmentations on the ''Hopeful''. The procedures had to be done in the utmost secrecy, so [[Vice Admiral Margaret O. Parangosky]] ordered that the ship park in [[Sector K-009]], much to Jeromi's displeasure. Its eventual fate is unknown, but it may have been destroyed in the [[First Battle of Earth|First]] or [[Second Battle of Earth]]. | In [[2551]], the [[Spartan-III]] [[Gamma Company]] underwent their physical augmentations on the ''Hopeful''.
