Galileo Base is a makeshift UNSC research facility located on the surface of Requiem. The facility was built around a Forerunner artifact in order to study and extract it. The base was optimized to meet ONI requirements for defensive emergencies.[1]
History
In February 2558, Galileo came under attack by Covenant forces.[2] Fireteam Crimson later arrived and fought off the attackers.[2] Later, Galileo Base was examining another Forerunner artifact known as the Didact's Gift. During this examination the Covenant-Promethean alliance launched a large assault on the base to retrieve it. Fireteam Crimson was awaiting extraction when the attack began and were forced to defend Galileo again. The base's defenses had been powered down to test a mini-reactor so Crimson was forced to turn them on to deal with the waves of Phantoms. After the Covenant assault had been halted, Promethean forces began translocating into the area. While Crimson engaged the Prometheans, Commander Palmer ordered Robert Dalton to bring in Fireteam Majestic to extract the artifact. Crimson was eventually able to eliminate all the Promethean forces in the area, allowing Majestic to retrieve the artifact.[3] Template:Expand-Section
