The '''outer colonies''' are [[human]] controlled planets terraformed to support life. These colonies were formed later than the [[Inner Colonies]] for it took longer time to travel that far from earth. So humanity used the Inner Colonies to dock and refuel ships. It was possible to get to these systems by using the [[Shaw-Fujikawa Slipspace Drive]] engine. The outer colonies were the first targets (and victims) of the Covenant. Most of them were destroyed during the beginning of their genocidal war against humanity. In fact Earth first made contact with the [[Covenant]] when the outer colony Harvest was destroyed.

The Outer Colonies are the most recent human-colonized planets. Until the Human-Covenant War, disorder and rebellion reigned. Many of the Outer Colonies were glassed by the Covenant during the war.

History

Many of the Outer Colonies contained dangerous atmospheres, and some, such as Eridanus II had to have their environments controlled through artificial means.

During the Human-Covenant War, many Outer Colonies were glassed. Beginning in 2525, Harvest was the first world to fall to the Covenant's genocidal wrath. By 2535, with the destruction of Jericho VII, most Outer Colonies had been lost. By 2552, few Outer Colonies existed, and these were either under rebel control or small and rather insignificant colonies living in constant fear of Covenant invasion.
