*Prior to colliding in the launch bay of Ascendant Justice, the Longsword is going at a speed of 300 m/s. This is equivalent to 1080 km/h (671 mph) and a sudden stop at that speed would kill the occupants immediately because of whiplash.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''Chapter 6''</ref> | |||
** This is likely a typo with the correct value being 30m/s. Strangely, this has not been corrected in the Definitive Edition. | |||
*John-117 notes that ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' was the largest Covenant ship he had ever seen with its length of three kilometers.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 36'' (2003), ''page 52'' (2010)</ref> However, several staple Covenant ship types the Master Chief had encountered over his career, such as the {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}}, are significantly larger than the ''Ascendant Justice''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s described size. | *John-117 notes that ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' was the largest Covenant ship he had ever seen with its length of three kilometers.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 36'' (2003), ''page 52'' (2010)</ref> However, several staple Covenant ship types the Master Chief had encountered over his career, such as the {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}}, are significantly larger than the ''Ascendant Justice''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s described size. |
