Two types of gondolas were encountered on [[Installation 05]], the first over the lake near the [[Temple (Installation 05)|Temple]] ("Temple gondolas"), and the second near the [[Library]] (the "Library gondolas"). The smaller Temple gondolas and underwater [[elevator]]s are the only way to reach the Forerunner temple where the [[Prophet of Regret]] initially set up his base of operations during the [[Battle of Installation 05]]. These gondolas are supported by anti-gravity "tethers" below and above. The larger Library gondolas and the [[teleportation grid]] are the only way to reach Installation 05's [[Library]].<ref name="regret"/><ref name="zone"/> | Two types of gondolas were encountered on [[Installation 05]], the first over the lake near the [[Temple (Installation 05)|Temple]] ("Temple gondolas"), and the second near the [[Library]] (the "Library gondolas").

Another type of gondola was encountered on the Forerunner [[shield world]] [[Requiem]], inside a communications tower that was being used as part of a traffic control system by the [[Didact]]. The gondola was used to traverse a large chasm between the tower entrance and the carrier wave generator. Users must traverse a small [[light bridge]] to enter the gondola. System overrides found on two separate structures within the tower could be used to halt the gondola's progress. These structures were also connected to the gondola by light bridges.<ref name="shutdown">'''[[Halo 4]]''', campaign level | Another type of gondola was encountered on the Forerunner [[shield world]] [[Requiem]], inside a communications tower that was being used as part of a traffic control system by the [[Didact]].
