During the [[Battle of Installation 05]], and the subsequent Quarantine of the Installation and ''[[High Charity]]'', [[Cortana]] requested that [[UNSC]] [[HIGHCOM]] deploy a NOVA Bomb around [[Installation 05]], to stop the outbreak of the [[Flood]], and ''High Charity'', in order to destroy the Covenant Holy Capital.

However, this request was not granted likely due to the low number of nuclear warheads left and their need to protect the [[Inner Colonies]]. ''High Charity'' was not bombed and later landed on [[Installation 00]]. It is also possible that this request was granted, but that High Charity went into [[Slipspace]] before the warhead could even be launched.
