'''Alpha Base''' was the main tactical [[Military base|firebase]] used during the [[Battle of Installation 04|Battle of Alpha Halo]] by surviving [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] forces after landfall 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. | '''Alpha Base''' was the main tactical [[Military base|firebase]] used during the [[Battle of Installation 04|Battle of Alpha Halo]] by surviving [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] forces after landfall on [[Installation 04]].

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 [[prefabricated memory plastic cubicle|cubicles]] and ate mostly [[Meal, Ready-to-Eat]] ration packs. A good deal of activity 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. | 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]].
