Cortana watches as the ship launches.

The only known Forerunner ship, was used by the Covenant to power High Charity. When the Flood attacked the city, the Prophet of Truth uncouples the ship from High Charity's power grid, and uses it to travel to Earth. The Forerunner ship travels vertically, like a rocket. It is also capable of slipstream travel. It is also possible that this ship could be the "Ark". However this is unlikely for the Prophet would have surely used the Ark to activate the remaining Installations as soon as they went on standby after Installation 05 was deactivated.

At the end of Halo 2 Master Chief gets onboard this Forerunner Ship, in his mission to kill the Prophet of Truth. When Cortana attempts to slow its launch sequence, she describes being fought by a presence, this suggests an enemy AI inside the ship, or that the coding is well advanced to counter even sophisticated hacking. It is possible there is a Foreunner A.I. in the ship, so Cortana warned the UNSC about the ship. This ship is very geometric and angular in its design.

It is approximated to be about 14 kilometers tall.
