'''Alpha Base''' was the main tactical [[Military base|Firebase]] used by the remaining [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] forces after planet fall on [[Installation 04]]. It was located on a small mesa several kilometers down-spin from the crash site of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}. The mesa itself housed a collection of [[Forerunner]] structures as well as a system of caves stretching beneath the facility and linking with the larger subterranean system of the ring. [[Wellsley]] tagged the base as '''HS2604'''.<ref name="flood48">'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page 48</ref>

The [[human]]s set up camp around the base using the supplies they had scrounged from the ''Autumn'' and their [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|Human Entry Vehicles]]. They lived in [[prefab Memory-Plastic Cubicle|cubicles]] and ate mostly [[Meal, Ready-to-Eat|Meals Ready to Eat]]. A good deal of the activities also took place in caverns underneath the facility in the Forerunner structures. It was abandoned by the humans shortly before the destruction of the ring, due to their taking of the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' and the growing Flood presence in the area.
