:Do we have a source for the thrust bit? Of course, your argument is that how a UNSC ship can travel, say, a lightyear in an hour relates to how compressed slipspace is. The only thrust-related source I can find, however, is from Contact Harvest's opening chapter, where it disambiguates the slipspace drive from the thrusters (it seemed to suggest that how fast you travelled would depend on how fast you were going ''in'' slipspace). A hole in your argument is in ''Halo 2'', where Regret's carrier goes very slowly into a slipspace rupture, and yet still travels at tremendous speed.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 18:19, 31 January 2012 (EST)

The point I was trying to get accross was; that in the vacuum of space there would be little to no (wind) resistance to ''tear'' the ships from the hull, this goes the same for slipspace (theres no anything in slipspace). I can see no real reason why they couldn't be latched onto an airlock. And I see your point about regret's carrier, on that same note, the covenant have a way better understanding of slipspace. besides slipspace isnt the most understood topic in the halo universe, bungie has used this to their advantage, to explain discrepancies  --[[User: maccabeuse|Maccabeuse]] 07:36, 31 January 2012 (EST)
