Ariel
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ratings Template:Planet
Ariel is a Human colony world of the United Nations Space Command. The planet has two archaeological dig sites and one settlement, with a population of approximately 4000 residents.[1]
During the Human-Covenant War, the Covenant invaded the colony, and one of the civilians managed to send out a distress signal, to which UNSC High Command sent a force of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers from the 105th ODST Division to investigate. The UNSC forces came to notice that the Covenant were not operating in their usual fashion; Glassing of the planet was not their intent, but they were searching for something under the surface instead.[1]
