The planetoid at the center of the Foundry was originally located within the [[Milky Way]] galaxy, but was moved through [[slipspace]] by the Forerunners in order to be mined. It is implied that many planetoids had been exhausted before mining started on the moon present in [[2552]].<ref>'''[[Halo: The Great Journey: The Art of Building Worlds]]''', ''page 32''</ref>
