The '''Babd Catha Forerunner Complex''' was an ancient [[Forerunner]] complex on the planet [[Reach]]. It was located underneath [[Sword Base]] on the [[Babd Catha Ice Shelf]]. It was the home to one of [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey's]] labs, and had evidently been under excavation by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] for some time.<ref name="HR">'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level ''[[The Package (level)|The Package]]''</ref>

According to [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]], the complex held secrets that could turn the tide of the [[Human-Covenant War]] — a "latchkey" discovery that Halsey compared to the invention of the conical bullet and the [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]]. However, when the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] began attacking the facility, the decryption was only partially complete. Using [[M8 Automated Defense System|Wolf Spider turrets]], [[Noble Team]] was able to hold off the Covenant for long enough until Halsey could finish the decryption.<ref name="HR"/>

*The Babd Catha complex marks the second large Forerunner complex on the planet Reach, perhaps suggesting that Reach was somehow important to the Forerunners.
