The Covenant discovered the location of Installation 04 after the Covenant [[Fleet of Particular Justice]] followed the single [[UNSC]] cruiser, the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}, which was fleeing from the [[~~Battle~~ of Reach]] through slipspace. It is assumed that the Covenant knew about the Ring prior to the events of The [[Battle of Installation 04]], as the [[Prophets]] all have a holographic representation of them on their headdresses and [[Cortana]] stated previously that she used the coordinates received by the beam in ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''. Due to the Covenant's faster [[Slipspace]] capabilities they arrived before the ''Pillar of Autumn''.

The ''Pillar of Autumn'' arrived around September 19, 2552 and was promptly shot down by the warding Covenant space forces. At around the same time, the Covenant ground forces on Installation 04 accidentally unleashed the Flood from captivity. The ensuing four-day battle that took place all over the ring was called The Battle of Installation 04. [[Human]]s, [[Flood]], and the Covenant fought massive battles against one another as the Forerunner [[Construct]]s tried to control the outbreak by activating Halo. The ring's AI, [[343 Guilty Spark]], also known simply as The Monitor, tried to convince the [[Master Chief]] to activate Halo. Not knowing the truth of what it did, he attempted to light the Ring but was stopped by his AI friend and companion Cortana who was in [[The Core]]. She informed the Master Chief of Halo's true purpose and stashed the [[Index]] in her memory banks. The Monitor betrayed the two and tried to kill the Master Chief and retrieve Cortana, but the two escaped and started plotting against him. In the end the Master Chief detonated the ''Pillar of Autumn''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s fusion reactors which destroyed the Halo ring.
