A [[Remote Scanning Outpost]] located on the edge of the [[Sigma Octanus system]], the '''Archimedes''' was designed to detect incoming threats to the Sigma Octanus System. It was crewed by three individuals. On July 17, [[2552]], the ''Archimedes'' detected a large mass in [[Slipspace]]. Lovell believed that it was simply a large asteroid and did not investigate further. However, it turned out to be a hostile [[Covenant]] force inbound for Commander Keyes' battle group. [[Ensign William Lovell]] worked aboard this station and, because of this incident, he was transferred to the ''[[UNSC | A [[Remote Scanning Outpost]] located on the edge of the [[Sigma Octanus system]], the '''Archimedes''' was designed to detect incoming threats to the Sigma Octanus System.
