==Overview==
==Overview==
The ''Hopeful'' was undoubtedly one of the oldest and most revered ships in the UNSC fleet. As of [[2551]], the ship had been damaged multiple times in engagements against the [[Covenant]] but had survived due to a mixture of luck, skill, and daring. It has been involved in eighteen naval battles with rebel forces and four encounters with the Covenant. Since at least [[2525]], it has been commanded by the legendary [[Vice Admiral]] [[Ysionris Jeromi]]. The ship has taken on near-mythical status to soldiers fighting on the front lines.

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-g' although many soldiers whom [[Kurt-051]] spoke to and had been in the ''Hopeful'' describe her as 'the most beautiful thing ever to be seen'. Within the ship, a state of the art hospital was constructed.

==Operational History==
==anchor nineed to Dr. Halsey by the admiral was used by Halsey in the augmentations on the SPARTAN-II and SPARTAN-III soldiers.==
In [[2495]], the UNSC took control of the station and added six 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 injured patients at a time. With the horrors of the [[Human-Covenant War]] taking their toll on the UNSC forces, the ''Hopeful'' was always busy. In many cases, the ''Hopeful'' was known to literally 'bring the dead back to life'.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 97''</ref>
 
In [[2525]], [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]] messaged her former instructor Admiral Ysionris Jeromi about a set of hypothetical augmentation experiments performed upon [[Bonobo Chimpanzee]]s aboard the ''Hopeful'', much to the displeasure Admiral Jeromi at the thought of such an experiment, concerning Dr. Halsey's upcoming [[SPARTAN-II]] Augmentations .<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 56''</ref> The data presented to Dr. Halsey by the admiral was used by Halsey in the augmentations on the SPARTAN-II and SPARTAN-III soldiers.


In [[2551]], [[Spartan-III]] [[SPARTAN-III Gamma Company|Gamma Company]] underwent their physical augmentations on board 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. The ''Hopeful's'' eventual fate is unknown. Also unknown is whether the previous Spartan-III company, [[SPARTAN-III Beta Company|Beta]], underwent their augmentation procedures on board the Hopeful, although it is known that Alpha Company did so.<ref>'''''[[Birth of a Spartan]]'''''</ref>
